1) What is your screen resolution? 2) I thought you would prefer to have the descriptions aligned vertically, but its an easy edit of the template to change.

Again, the first is just a template edit - I think you should really do this yourself - preferences will be very individual and site specific. The second is worth thinking about - but again, people are starting to complain that the input forms get too complex, so one starts needing extra switches and there's more to go wrong. Another option would be simply to trim the field down to a certain number of characters. Only problem with that is that one has to be very careful if people put bbcodes, etc, in the field - you can end up killing a bbcode in the middle.

What about letting the user choose, and keeping the choice in a cookie?

I noticed that too, I thought I'd put transparency settings into them, but something seems to have gone wrong along the way. Will take a look when I'm back home.
