On some of the computers that I have used to access B.net, there is a large amount of space to the right of the Forums list. I would much rather see larger text on B.net and get rid of the space. Is this possible? I am sorry if this is an often asked question.

I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

It's always like htis. The higher resolutions have an empty space next to the posts.

I think it's so you can have sidebars on and still be able to see the entire page without scrolling sideways.

Well you can hold control and scroll up or down to change text size.

that empty space rocks.thats seriously the only reason i come back to b.net.. in other places, where the text takes up the whole screen, it sorta hurts me and makes me get kinda dizzy.. ESPECIALLY when the backrounds are all white.

All you have to do is change the screen resolution to get rid of the empty space. Personally, I like it. I don't have to dart my eyes back and forth to read long lines of text.

Everything will be gone long before me. When the first living thing was born, I was here, waiting. When the last living thing dies, my job is finished. I'll put the chairs on the tables, turn out the lights and lock the universe behind me when I leave.

Yea, I like the smaller text and the back and blue backround. it doesn't hurt my eyes.

Its like that for the peope who are still running 800x600. That way everyone can easily see the entire page.

By the looks of it, 640x480, too. Although I presume the navigation would be cut down somewhat.

We should fill those empty spaces up with Great Stuff! Or sand... either one is a great insulator.

That pretty much sums it up.

Filling it up will make the screen cluttered.

It's made for people with less resolution on their monitors.

Some people just need to quit being retarded and upgrade their damn monitor resolutions...makes life miserable for web programmers.

The empty space (white space) is there for a reason: to give users' eyes a break, instead of having the entire screen filled up and cluttered.
