Default Vbulletin Header

Ok, when on the computer at my house my header image is fine. It is lined up perfectly with my forum. But I came to visit my dad today and I was viewing it from his computer and it is too wide for the forum. Can someone tell me what is going on? My site is buckipreps.com, how does it look to you?

Your header is very wide. Not everyone opens their browser window that wide (I don't and I have a 24" monitor). You should design a site that will work on most browsers or that will fit most browser window sizes.

You should make your header smaller. There are sites out there that talk about good design practices - google "web design practices". You might want to take a look at some of those sites and read what they have to say.

My header is 800 wide but according to google analytics, 95% of our traffic has a screen resolution of 1024 or greater. But, just because that is your screen resolution doesn't mean you have the browser window filling up the screen (mine certainly doesn't).
