"Announcement" causes side scrolling.

**SPeedY_B** · April 12th, 2004

The "Site Announcement" at the top of the page causes side scrolling when using a small browser window (and I supposed it affects them strange folk in wierdly small resolutions too)

Not entirely sure what can be done to fix it, just thought I'd be annoying and mention it

**Electronic Punk** · April 12th, 2004

You using a resolution of 1024x768 or greater?

**SPeedY_B** · April 24th, 2004

Oops, forgot I made this, and yes, I'm using 1680x1050. But I don't like to have my browser maximised. What's the point in a multi process environment with windowing capabilities if you're just going to hog the screen with one window, may as well use dos

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Cos OSNN is more important than everything else.

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Seriously tho, I have a resolution that I will put into practice at the same time as when I get what I am gonna do to the frontpage done.

**SPeedY_B** · April 24th, 2004

An example: side scrolling

(edit) beat me to it.
You can see though that it's only a part of the google ad and the announcement that scrolls of screen, the actual site itself actually adjusts to the window, so it's not actually a major problem, just an annoyance

/me blesses his Firefox Web Developer extension which allows him to auto size his browser window to 1024x768

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Yeah, my plan is now to eliminate sidescrolling even for the peasants that use 800x600. That is for the forums and the frontpage.

If you actually look at the frontpage.
The only theme is currently called Orbitz 1024x768

This should give you a hint at what my plan is.

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Might need that extention geffy. tho i might just change my res so I can "feel" what they feel.

Bless their cotton socks.

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Done. I notice a line between the logo and the background of the adjacent table row tho... gonna try and fix that.

Currently browsing the forums at 800x600 ... lol

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Sorted. The forums are now accessible to users at a resolution of 800x600 and above!!

**gonaads** · April 24th, 2004

Yay!!! All hail EP, Yay, no more side scrolling...!

And now for his next trick...

**SPeedY_B** · April 24th, 2004

Looks good, have we mentioned the (extra) line break between the horizontal line and the first news/forum title before?

e.g.

**Evil Marge** · April 24th, 2004

Me neither

**SPeedY_B** · April 24th, 2004

Aah, just tried it in other browsers, seems it's just a case of safari being an ****.

**Electronic Punk** · April 24th, 2004

Safari can off sod then

**SPeedY_B** · April 24th, 2004

Yip

It's more KHTML (the Konqurer rendering engine) than Safari, either way, I'll slap a bug report at Apple, they've fixed numerous thing's I've sent before
