As the thread in Bugs ain't getting much traffic, Stu has said i can post in here

As the title suggests.
The current setup uses 1024x768 which means the writing within any threads with large pics is going off the end of the screen depending on your screen resolution. I've tried a higher resolution on my screen but find it uncomfortable to use. Stu has asked me to start a poll to gauge everyone's opinion. Over to you

800x600


1024x768

800 x 600

The big ones bug me when they go off the edge of the page, having to keep scrolling left and right makes reading the thread a pain, !

Tidgy

the bigger ones fit within my screen, might be using a lower res setting than me foz

Depends where I am, voted other as I need 640x426 for my work 17" monitor set to 1024x768. At home it's no problem.

I clicked 'other'

Personally I prefered it when the forum resized your pics to fit then you could click on the to see them full size

Means the rest of dont get pi$$ed off when some idiot forgets to resize a pic that is some 2k pixels wide but we can all have the option to see the full size pic if we want

SirFozzalot

Yep, that's a good idea.

Brun

That's what we are talking about. The forum currently resizes your pics to 1024x768 which for some - myself included, is too big. The forum used to re-size your pics to 800x600 which is just right for me.
Whatever the outcome of the poll, i guess i'll be happy with as i am happy to go with the masses

ffs who uses a screen res < 1024x768 anymore it's tiny! Pics at this size in a forum is perfect for me.

It's ok for me at home on my laptop too actually Just my work one that is rubbish!

I know it frustrates me as well, however a lot of our software we use was designed to work at that resolution many years ago. If I increase my resolution, I need to use binoculars to see anything

The old system of resizing worked just fine for me.

800 x 600 is way too small, Stu knows my preference for this.

200 x 200 or whatever size anyone wants for anything other than the photography section where it should be full size.

Why can't people just post thumbnails - it's bloody irritating when each post is miles long especially when it's multiple pics e.g.


is far better than....

I don't mind this once but it really pisses me off when people then quote the whole post rather than just the image they are referring to!

Can it be made possible for the pics to show on the mobile SN? That's more annoying for me at the moment than a scroll bar on my laptop.

Brun

Looks like things are starting to lean towards the 1024
I've tried various different resolutions to suit the larger pics but for reading purposes none of them seem any good

Brun

Just had a thought.
Stu - is it not possible to have larger pics in the Photo forum and the Members Gallery and smaller ones everywhere else? Those two forums are for looking at pictures and the rest are predominately for reading - everyone's a winner :thumb

1024 for me , thumbnails are just as iritating as the massive pics and the people that find the need quote all the pics that they are replying to

1024 for me, depends on resolution of screen i guess. thumbnails just makes it longer for me to see each pic imo

There must be more people than this who have an opinion?

Brun

Anyone?
