Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
I painted the bottom of the clouds so they blend in better with the blueish white background.

Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
Oh Pen - Replace your current sky background with this one:

It should make the transition between the clouds and the bottom of the screen more seamless. Right now, you can see a sharp straight line at the bottom of the clouds.

Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
Can a background image be made to be centered behind the board? With a giant monitor, the board is centered on my screen and the background is way over on the left hand side.

Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
Yep, by adding this to the CSS for the body:
background-position: center top;
But I tried something a little different to make the sides blue instead of gray, while keeping the gray at the bottom. Take a look and tell me what you think. The alternative would be to redo the background image so it will tile nicely horizontally, or perhaps make it the same width of the container or a bit smaller, so the seams can be hidden behind it (provided there are no screen resolutions wider than 2395px yet; the widest I'm aware of is 1680px).
I miss my CRT at times like this.

Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
I like that the bottom expands to any height that the forum or topics expand to. The sides are not a big deal. It's not distracting when everything is symmetrical.
My monitor is 1920 x 1200, the 24" iMAC.

Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
That's huge, PR! I want one too.
Skokey, I'm jealous of your screen size and resolution, but maybe I'll hold out for something bigger.
Since it seems to be ok now and tiling the image as-is doesn't sound like a good option, I'd say it's good to go.

Re: I know you'll think I'm stupid
I finally have side to side scrolling on my mouse and I don't need it!
Actually, I do use it while working in Photoshop. Quite handy.
