In response to "sure. but why does st leave so much white space on the right side of the screen? -- nm" by tRuMaN

I can't think of a good way to use that space. Not wrapping subjects at a decent width makes them very hard to read. -- nm

you only have the table set to be 610px wide. why not just make it bigger? -- nm - JaxSean Oct 15, 09:49 16
- Because then it looks ugly. :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 10:00
- maybe it should be custimizable to our login. -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 15, 09:51 14
  - You mean like in the "Change Info" page? That could probably be easily implemented. - JaxSean Oct 15, 10:01 4
    - Unfortunately, the logo won't stretch ... -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 10:02 2
      - make the logo fade to gray and just put a gray background in the table cell. - JaxSean Oct 15, 10:09 1
        
        Sounds like a good idea. I'll see what I can do. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 10:26
    - CHANGE WE NEED! -- nm - Obama Oct 15, 10:01
  - isn't there a function in php to get the monitor settings? - JaxSean Oct 15, 09:53 8
    - using javascript, yes, but visual layout stuff is no small undertaking. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 09:53 7
      - huh, ok. -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 15, 09:55 6
        
        when does this thing shrink the font? -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 15, 09:57 5
        
        when it works ... now -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 09:58 4

        when? -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 15, 10:00 1
        
        Hrm, so it's got two bugs. The tenth level should be small, and it needs to keep track of the entrance and exit values of the counter. Hrm. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 10:01
true, but since they wrap already at a certain size. - tRuMaN Oct 15, 09:48 3
- I could put ST in the center, and have white space on both sides, but ... people wouldn't like that. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 09:49
- I run it on a 24" Widescreen, so I have a lot of space. Heh. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 15, 09:49 1
  - I'm on my laptop, which is widescreen, and it has lots of space as well. -- nm - tRuMaN Oct 15, 09:49
more ads? Keep the money flowing! :) -- nm - Beaker Oct 15, 09:47
