Personally I think the site organisers are generally doing a good job with what must be a difficult migration, but I think they may be going overboard trying to make this place look professional. I assume this rule is related to the fixed page width and blue borders which others were complaining about in a previous thread. Imo 800x600 is just too small, the figure of 30% may be true in general, but on a file sharing board i would reckon it is unlikely.
(btw Firebird does have scrollbars for me....??? :blink: )
