The View From Older Computers...

So every so often I see my site from a computer with a lower screen resolution and the center columns is just way too skinny especially if there are images. So I've done some alterations to the main page if you have a screen resolution of 1,000 pixels across (or less) I feed you a different CSS file that pushes the right column off the right of the screen so if you want to see it you'll have to scroll to the right (I'm thinking the better viewing will make it worth it). JavaScript will have to be enabled for this to work.

Please let me know if this works better for the lower resolution people (and look the same for the rest of you). I'll probably move some items from the right to the left if this works out and I'll do it to more pages on the site (especially the individual ones that you can put the comments on).

I used this information from the Movable Type Forums to do this. Everything that you need should be there.

FYI - Over 10% of my viewers have screen sizes less than 1,000 pixels wide and another 10% are unknown.

Please give me some feedback on this, I'm only trying to make this better for you...
