A suggestion for the site design has been brought to my attention

[jtmal0723]

Billy has come to me, and we both agree that I should expand the width of the design, maybe double it. It looks a bit too narrow on a wide screen monitor and I was thinking about it but I don't know what others think. Right now  it's 475 pixels wide, which is narrow. Compare it to the forums logo, which is 700 pixels wide. Do you all think I should open the CSS and expand the table out a bit, which would make room to add about 3 new menus to the menu bar... I want to know what others think. Again, I will only listen to the majority, not just 2-3 people.

I have whipped up a poll. It will run for 14 days maximum. You will not see the results unless you vote.

Yes, I think it could be expanded a little, and also centered on the page instead of on the left side.

Ditto, I have a widescreen and the home page looks scrunched up.

[jtmal0723]

hmmm I'm not sure,but if enough people go yes, we'll start with the expansion then I'll think about centering it...

I think it should be expanded, but instead of adding to the menu bar, I'd prefer to simply have it expanded, keeping the current number of options.

hmmm, you mean something like keep emptiness next to the menubar for the 300 or so pixels I will add?

No, I mean like expand the current menu bar to fit in the extra space.

hmmmmm.... that's definitely a possibility... I'll think about the possibilities... poll is closed. I'll work on finding myself a test php server so I can work on the CSS a bit, what I need from you, Gary, is to get me the hex values of your A links CSS variable so you won't have to modify that again.

Laymens terms please.

I was going to say something about this and didn't. As everyone else has said, I think the width should be doubled and the page centered, too.
