XK-WRX Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 This may be a stupid question, but is there a way to get the pages on the forums to fit the width of my computer screen? I don't mind scrolling down to read things, but I really hate it when the text goes off the side of the page. Is this related to my browser (Firefox) or the website? Thanks for any advice!

XK-WRX Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 Nope, the F11 doesn't help with this issue. The odd thing is that some threads (like this one) fit the page properly, but other threads in other forums extend too wide for my screen. I thought it might have something to do with wrap-around text mode being set or not set by the person that started the thread, but I don't see anyway to modify that.

Guest *Jedimaster* Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Hmmm- did you try CTRL+Scroll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 AFAIK, it only happens when people post pix that are bigger than the screen size somewhere on that page. Not sure there's a way around that... Seek first to understand, then to be understood. In other words: SEARCH before you post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure there's a way around that... That makes some sense, and explains why it happens on some theads and not others. Thanks BTW, Jedimaster, thanks for the tip on the CTRL-Scroll - I didn't know you could do that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laz Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 +1 on the pics being too big. There is a hack for vbulletin that will resize all posted pics to fit your screen no matter how big the pic is. I am sure it is resource intensive. X --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meier motor sports Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 windows can do the same thing. but people should jsut not directly post large pics! or the modderators could simply edit out image tags where needbe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
