16:9 vs 4:3 Views

[Marc NY]

It was brought to my attention that my Avatar or some photo posts may be too wide for some of our members who have smaller size (4:3) viewing screens. Honestly, I hadn't given it that much thought about how hard (pain in the butt) it may be for some of our members who may have to drag the scroll bar at the bottom of a (4:3) viewing size screen to be able to view and or read all the subject matter that is posted in our threads.

Below is how I see the view (16:9) from our website. As you can see it doesn't affect my viewing at all. How many of you see what I see and how many of you have to use the bottom scroll bar to read a thread with a wide Avatar or post that have been used?

NOTE: If need be I can use a "narrower" Avatar in my next Avatar selection.

*You can vote more than once. One for size of your monitor and the other if you have to scroll or not.

I notice that sometimes I have to use the scroll bar and other times the first time I use the scroll bar the image resizes itself to fit my window. Have not figured out what the eifference is that make this happen. I am sure that at this point I am likely in the minority since I am working on a laptop which is 8 - 10 years old.
Guess I just need to breakdown and buy a new computer.

Somebody posted a large picture last week & rarely do I have to scroll back and forth.

Also, some wise guy or two will hit the "." key like this & ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................... it wider then hell.

No, but I have two telephones in the house that have cranks, and two more in storage. I like old suff.

I see the same thing you do, Marc. No need to scroll.
