Actually they are designed to accomodate the 3 most popular screen size resolutions by statistics of what are the 3 most popular.

I have multiple pc's, and one is a wider screen ratio of something like 1200 x ?, I'm not turning it on to find it. You must be using 1600 x 1200 or something like that, which is still not very common based upon information we found on the net of studies of the most popular sizes.

There was originally a problem with stretching the BG image, so we went into working with the 3 most popular sizes and found that it currently would work for those 3. But wider resolutions would incur tiling. Or the highest resolution would look the best with a stretching BG, while smaller ones would look too dwarfed.

At first I was thinking...that won't work of what you said of a background color, but then I thought about the front page and I think we are thinking the same thing. Where the background is there, but for wider resolutions we add a background color?

If you look at our main page you'll see that it has the page, and then a navy blue border for wider resolution monitors. I think that is what you are saying, and that is what I'm thinking would be a good move to eliminate tiling.

If you are thinking get rid of the image BG altogether, that would defeat the purpose of making a translucent or semi-translucent set of skins, and we would not be better off going that route.

I think I got ya though, thanks for the advice.
