    Poll: The ATK site with a fixed width?


    I was just wondering what percentage of you would like the site to have a fixed width, instead of stretching to the size of your monitor.

    Please vote in the poll and let me know what resolution you run as well. I am currently using a 19" 5:4 and it looks fine, but on widescreen monitors the site does look far too stretched in my opinion.

    Obviously, if we did decide to change the site there would be a certain amount of tweaking involved to make it look right, but that would be sorted out at a later date.

    I have a 24" as you know, and though it is kinda stretched, I couldn't care less tbh.

    Making it fixed would mean having the width less than 1280px which would probably look worse on my monitor.

    Re: Poll: The ATK site with a fixed width?

    Fixed would mean less that 1024 most likely instead of 1280, there are still a few people who use 15" monitors.

    I'm using a 19" 16:9 and it looks perfect in my opinion other than the post area being slightly overstretched.

    I say keep it stretched as if it's fixed it would have to be over 1280 to make it look bearable on a wide-screen, however under 1024 for those who are on a budget.

    Looks fine to me, I run a sort-of widescreen 1280, maybe you could make an option or something if you do change it

    Fixed width can make a website look a LOT better but still 16:10 aspect ratio says no to fixed width from me.

    Looks like it staying the same way then judging by the poll results. Fixed would be good but due to the immense range of resolutions used it's just not really an option.
