lol - I am still sticking to W7 wide - cause it has forum links at the bottom....
I agree with you John, I also like the links at the bottom and I know where to find everything lol, but I still like the new skin as well, different strokes for different folks.
I definitely like the colors of the new skin, but soo many of the colors blend in so well that at times I miss things that should be right there under my nose, so to speak. I think offsetting things with a bit of orange would make this a very likable skin for me. Then again, I'd also go with a very dark skin, as I like dark backgrounds, too....
You're right - I would never have noticed that as I simply cannot afford (more like do not want to) have unused whitespace on my widescreen monitor - at a resolution of 1680 x 1050, that all the non-wide skins look, well, ugly, in that there is so much white (wasted) space on the sides...hence my preference for a wide skin.
In fact, it is the same reason why I am always running all my browsers in maximized mode, either to a single screen or to my entire desktop...Now *that* is efficient real estate use....
Here is a small tutorial I wrote on how to use BBCode efficiently with this board (and other boards that are based upon the BBS / Forum software being used - I am guessing that it is IPB?)...
ALso, if you plan on using the Spellbound II extension I mentioned earlier in New skin to play with then you'll need to do one of these as well....me said:
