On the to-do list ...

Mr Yoda, shouldn't it be..?
"pleasing some there is no, tsk, great looks it is"

I've reduced the padding at the bottom of each post by 15 pixels - which over a page of 20 replies removes 300px height.

I've also removed 5px from the top of each avata and 10px below - reducing the size of the avatar block a little.

I'll tweak other things later - got some bigger fish to fry first ...

Right, of course are you.

I've removed 40 pixels from the minimum height of the post area - should bunch things up a bit tighter and reduce the overall page length.

I'm going to look at darkening the background a little bit too - the white is nice and clear, but it's very bright.

I'll experiment when I get chance over the weekend.

Yay! I've had to start wearing shades to work. which looks a little suspicious in late November.

I did mention it looked all looked a bit big in the "pre-launch" forum, thought it was related to the font being used though.... glad to see I'm not the only awkward git . Problem is, you can't please absolutely everybody.

Edited to add - ta much ianrauk, I'd forgotten you can do this:

You can change the resolution.
Hold down the ctrl key and use the roller on your mouse to make it smaller 9or even larger)

You just need to work for a cooler company ....

Ha! There isn't one.

Oh no? These guys might have something to say about that ....

I don't like all this white much either. Users can change away the default font and text size when they post, but it soon becomes a nuisance when you have to do it each time you post. Aaargh!

it is making a difference - although these muppets who insist on quoting all the time are wasting an awful lot of space!!!! No chance of downsizing the surround to the avatar?
