Moderator!! New Format

[fookungdo]

Hi,
Since the new format started the other day I have had to scroll along the bottom to be able to read the posts. It doesn't all fit onto the page as it did before.

Is this due to the new website? Or is it my computer?

Makes it harder to read.

thanks
FOO

If your monitor will handle it, adjust resolution to 1024 X 768, that should help. Sounds like you are using 800 X 600 res. A lot of 15-inch monitors max out at 800 X 600 but the 17-inchers are happy at 1024 X 768 and a lotta web pages look better at the higher res.

If your monitor won't handle it, possibly time to think about new monitor, even flat-screen LCD units. Just be sure your monitor and video card will both go to the higher res settings.

Try using

http://www.pprune.org/forums/

in your URL box. This seems to get rid of the left hand list of things to do associated with the home page. Appears to get around the problem.

Thanks Criticalmass.
Next question
What do I do to change the resolution on my monitor?

Thanks

Fook...it seems that the new BB clashes with netscape.

Try another browser, if you were using that one.

That's JT that works much better

Thanks John for the great tip, changed the entry in my favorites
list, and now works perfect on IE without having to change the
resolution.

"Start" - "Settings" - "Control Panel" - "Display" - "settings" and alter the resolution there.

This seems to be a Netscape problem.

Each paragraph extends for a single line across many screens.

Seems ok with IE, but not good for Netscape v4 users.

It is only the forum pages that seem to be a problem.

The problem does lie within older versions of NetScape. Version 6.2.2 seems fine.

Explorer, iCab, Opera and Omniweb all work without any problems.
