U.S.S. TITAN -- THE WINNER!

Wow, these are really nice! can't wait to see the finished image. :thumbsup:

Here are links, since the Moderator didn't like my inline images.

it is more about most people still have a 1280x1024 res screen, or even less, so images that are really wide stretches the screen really badly that people will have to horizontal scroll all the time. This issues comes up all the time on the board when photos are posted. I'm assuming Art section don't complain as much (or at all) because most people there have wide screens with very fine resolutions.
 
"You're a mean one, Rosalind / You really are a veruul. / You're as cuddly as a Horta, / You're as charming as a Q. / Rosalind."
 
Oh, cut that out. I was just funnin' ya. 'Sides, you only filk the ones you love. :D

Or something. ;)

YAY! cookies! thank you KRAD. :D I'd give you a kiss but Terri will kill me. :angel:

::munching on the cookie:: yummy, thanks again. :) :)

At 1600x1200, the wide images don't bother me at all.

I've got a 17" monitor with 1900x1200 resolution, and the wide images annoy the crap out of me, mainly because my browser window isn't full screen (I generally prefer having smaller windows I can click back and forth on if the spirit moves me, and besides, there's no need for a web browswer to be that wide), and having to scroll sideways just to click on "index" to get back to the main page is incredibly annoying.
 
How about getting a bigger screen, KRAD, they do make them. I have a 17" screen but i don't mind horizontal scrolling when looking at pics of the Titan.
 
Scrolling for the pictures isn't a problem. Scrolling for the rest of the posts is the problem. If this were one of those boards where a large-sized picture only moves the margin for the post its in and leaves the others unaffected, people could post pictures as large as they wanted.

Well, for starters, I'm working on a laptop.... :lol:
Ok, I guess you could get a bigger laptop though. I'm trying to get my one fixed. The hard drive is as dead as a tribble on Q'onos and I haven't got the money for getting another cos I'm buying all the new Trek books.

Obviously, you can see where my priorities lie. Anywho, back on topic, I just kind of adapt to scrolling every which way cos that's just the way I am.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of a laptop? Making one too big would impair its portability, not to mention its ability to fit in protective cases and the like.
 
I run Firefox and one feature they picked up from MSIE (one of the few good ones in MSIE that work well with MSIE) if F11. I hit F11 and the browser window becomes full screen. F11 again when done and it's back to normal.
 
Actually I just read a post in the lounges that someone have their screen res set at 800x600 as they are visually impaired. In those cases a picture width of 800 is too wide.
