When I open this website, the banner has the two football players and the OSS logo on the left. On the right of the banner, it says "OSTATE SP" and below it "The Ultimate Destination For". Both lines on the right are cut off by the right end of the banner. Do I not have my settings right or does it look like that for everyone? Just curious.

It's your system settings

for some reason the main file is set to a specific size, and if your screen isnt maximized you will not see it all.

If your resolution isnt set correctly, it wont show it all either.

That is something we are going to have to get fixed.

I have shrunk how it looks on my page but hopefully this will give you an idea of what I see.

I did play with the page size. I am at 100% and changing to 125% or 75% does nothing.

what is your resolution set to?

Control Panel, Display, Settings.


Annie, minimize the window, click on the bottom right and drag it left. The right border takes over the page instead of the resizing as you drag. Its been like that since forever........

I always mean to bring it up, but forget.

OSUFan - try putting your settings at 1024x768. You'll see the whole bar. The problem is making one header that scales to different resolutions. The header above is actually two pictures.

This:

And then the right 'endcap':

It'll adjust 'up' to higher resolutions, but there isn't enough space on the lower resolutions to show it all...if that makes sense.

Something else you guys might want to look into.

When on the replying page with a browser window not in a high enough resolution the gray box overlaps outside of the bluish box and gets covered by the ad:

Friendly advice... set your screen resolution to atleast 1024x768 , if you can't upgrade your PC.

Oh, my screen res is plenty high enough, I just didn't have my window fullscreened and it appeared that the darker gray window was set to a fixed width that would extend outside of the lighter gray when it shrinks due to a smaller window.
