Why the hell am I going blind!!!

Post by Hardcorefs » Mon Dec 03, 2012 2:59 am

So tell me.......

WHY must you squash the support forum , into something the size of a postage stamp, that requires vertical & horizontal scrolling, when you have 4 inches of "empty" screen real-estate on the left of the forum window.....

when I have a 1280 X 1024 20" monitor.

I believe you are referring to the forum showing inside a frame? Just change your bookmark to point to http://zevo.getgreenbytes.com/forum

big and small pictures

to both posts above.

viewtopic.php?p=3105#p3105 reminds us that embedding of the forum is not forced; and that downsides of the smaller picture (without the frame) include a risk of newcomers not finding essentials such as the wiki and the main installer.

These are subtle additional motivations for me to suggest migration of content from the wiki.

The initial thoughts were exactly what Graham surmised above - there was a feeling that using the forum in the full window would keep users from seeing other parts of the website. That may be changed in the near future.

The wiki is there as a place where the developers can collect and easily edit reference information. This may change, but it's not as high on the list as de-framing the forum.
