Can you either point me to an answer if this has been asked before, explain what I'm doing wrong, or explain a business case. Please no off- the cuff answers just to respond to this Question and summarily put it to bed. I'm really looking for a serious answer from whoever has made the decisions about this website or from someone who knows what I'm doing wrong..

I have some pretty expensive machines. I'm using Windows 7 right now, not 10, and typically go through Firefox. But Renderosity's site seems to have a vertical layout when everything I do with 3D graphics is horizontal. This means I almost never see full images, even if I dial the display down to 80% of full size. To some extent I see this on other sites, but I attribute that to a more common consumer preference for shopping with a cell phone or tablet, something I might do in a department store, no matter how luxurious, but which I do not do for 3D graphics materials. The issue is particularly frustrating on Renderosity of all the 3D sites I visit.

Is there something I can do get the site to view better (short of dumbing down to a phone or something) ? A different browser? A toggle that says rotate viewing preference? Do 3D professionals work mostly with Vertical screens? It's always like seeing just the top third of an 8x10 sheet whenever I'm shopping here.

If it were a problem for others I can't believe I'd be the only one with this issue so I assume there is a reason/solution.
