The forum seems to always overflow horizonatally?

I'm at 1680x1050 and it always overflows? Seems to do it in IE7 and Firefox, and whether the it's windowed or maximised.

Which bit are you seeing overflowing? I run Brisky in a window that's 2/3 of my 1600x1200 display or about 1/2 my 1680x1050 and it seems fine, but I might be looking at the wrong bit. Only time I've seen serious overflow is when people embed giant pics...

I get a slight overflow and I am looking at 1920 x 1200, but I do use a text enlarger.

I view on 800 x 600 and find the same as ScoobyChris, that it only overflows when giant pics are posted. OK otherwise.

I get slight overflow on all the PCs I use when the window is maximised - even my stupidly widescreen one at work at 3360 x 1050, so as long as its maximised it still tries to go 105% of the screen.
Its doing it on this thread and there are no photos here.

Some changes to the code for the page shift the header back a bit, which slighly changes the alignment, but makes it fit. - I will point out that this is not my field in the slightest - I was just bored enough to try and work it out!

<div id="headerlogo" style="position:absolute; left:15px;
<div id="headertag" style="position:relative; left:20px;

If both of these are changed to left:0px; the scroll bar goes away. probably has lots of horrible knock on effects though.
Someone who truly understands what this is doing may work out the proper solution, but there's a new design being commissioned anyway.

Close. TBH I had not noticed it that much, but now I have...

width attr was breaking it with the offset included. But offset is needed to make it look right. Well look right from my hobbyist css skills.

My page looks right now thanks. Or was it the ‘width’ fairies doing something in the night?

My ‘CP’ page looks a bit funny now. I have lost some little images form the top left hand side of my Messaging box and ‘Subscriptions’ box. Also some of the fonts look a lot bigger than normal????
