The site was re-designed for 1024 x 768 resolution. This decision was based upon the fact that we conducted a poll several months back and this resolution accounted for the overwhelming majority. As for different browser versions, the new layout was tested for IE versions 5-6, Netscape Versions 4.7, 4.8, 6.2 & 7.0, & Opera versions 6-7. All browsers tested satisfactorily at 1024 x 768. If there is a problem with horizontal scrolling it is most likely due to an image being posted that would cause the layout to exceed 1024 pixels in width (which was the situation mentioned in the beginning of this thread) or using a resolution smaller that 1024 x 768. I'm sure it's not as if many of you never had to scroll in some situations before. I typically use a 1280 x 1024 resolution and have had to scroll horizontally many times for images that caused the layout to exceed it's designed specifications long before the new site design was implemented. By the way, you CAN select your own choice of link color as well as visited link color. This was implemented early this morning.
