Sweet.

The design is a little narrow, maybe the forum should be a fluid version of the design.

Hi Alec. I agree with you. I'm going to work on removing the sidebar only on the forum but not tonight. I need to let my brain recover from a weekend of sleepless nights and seeing HTML and CSS when I close my eyes :)

Just a heads up to the few people that have access to the forum. You'll notice the right sidebar is gone. I'm in the process of making the forum fill in that space to give a little better viewing experience to everyone. Hopefully I'll have it sorted this afternoon.

Ok, now the forum is full width. I think it looks pretty good. Now I can add a few more options to the forum and it won't look squished :)

This is a really nice forum. Easy to use and well laid out. Haven't found any issues so far.


Looking forward to catching up with everyone again Smile

As I said in my email, better, but I would still like it to be fluid.

I am using a custom stylesheet right now, and that appeases me so if no one else wants fluidness, I am fine Bakie.

That said, here is my CSS:

@Alec: Thanks for your email and comment, however please stop posting the entire style sheet. There is no need for that. I removed that mile long code sample.


Also, glad you like the wider forum.  We are going to keep the layout how it is with the left sidebar for now.

Just to clear up some confusion, I don't think alecgorge wants the sidebar removed, I think they want the layout fluid rather than fixed-width (just for the forum).

For the record, I'd rather not.  First, it means Sean and I have to maintain additional CSS.  Additionally, while some people (like alecgorge) prefer things wide, studies show over and over that it's easier to read smaller columns of text.

Just my two cents.

This width looks right on to me.  Is this forum your own creation or another forum software?
