Here is what I'm talking about. I have a normal view of any page here on 'rosity, except I am able to scroll beyond the menu and find a white area oever there. As you can see the border at the top goes all the way across the screen and I have to scroll to see it. Hope this helps you.

Is anyone else having this problem?? :/

It seems I've solved the problem. I had to adjust my screen resolution. I always have it set to 800 x 600. That size worked for viewing pages here at 'Rosity before the changes today. However, after the changes I'm now forced to adjust my settings. Now everything looks so much smaller :(

Actually, I suppose I'm not forced to change my resolution, as I can opt to deal with the top border that requires side scrolling. That way I can still view photos in a larger format :)

Do you know why they had to change it so it couldn't still be viewed at 800 x 600? Sorry if I'm being a pain in the arse, just curious.

Now I understand the problem you were having.... I thought your side bar was unviewable. I think they coded for a resoloution size of 1024 x 768 because that was the resolution that most member use. I actually have my res set to 1280 x 1024, but I have a 19 inch screen so things don't look so little. I will look into the other problem for you though now that you've solved this one on your own. And I will let you know what is going on with the member photo album.... that too seems to be working just fine for me. Might take a while to get an answer with all the other problems going on at the moment for them.

I am, therefore I create.......

Unfortunatly for me, it's a bit harder to change out of 800x600 which I've used for years. This is something that I quickly did in photoshop that I thought would appeal better to 800x600 screens. It's a great look, just a bit too big for smaller screens!

i have 1280x1024 too, i know it seems small at first, but give it a couple weeks and change it back, then every thing will seem really huge and annoying, smaller pixels meens better pictures. it's a good thing
