Very nice use of that template.    One of the best layouts I've seen.


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

Wow!  I really like that.  I would suggest to go a bit wider on your site / forum width though.  Even if you don't, it still looks great.

Thanks for such great compliments guys.  

Hey Craig, I wanted to make my entire site wider (great minds think alike eh?) but when I viewed my logs, I was horrified to discover that 27% of my users are still in 800X600!

I toyed with the idea of a fluid layout, or even two different templates depending on screen resolution but in the end I just gave up. The idea of losing my curved edges in CSS on my divs was just too much to bear  

What resolution are you in and was the site readable?

One thing I have done is designed the site so that once most of my users are on 1024 minimum, I can simply resize 3 images and alter 2 CSS div parameters and my site will magically expand. (I learned that the hard way from my last site  )

Thanks for taking the time to look at my site guys.

27%...wow!  Yeah, then you want to keep it the way it is.  I run at 1600X1200, and it looked fine and I had no problems viewing it.

Always cater for 800x600... just because the majority of screens are now set at larger defaults, MANY people forget the millions of vision-impaired people across the world who need larger and use larger resolutions regularly.

They've got to upgrade sooner (I hope sooner) or later.

My users are fantastic at cutting hair, but can just about post an image. I don't even think that many of them know what screen resolution is!  

I'm relieved that the site renders OK at much higher resolutions though.

How can a nearly blind person upgrade their eyesight?  A different monitor won't help
