I mentioned this when rw was created, that for me the size of the main page was too small.

I understand that it was made for 800*600? but at 1024 resolution it just looks confined and is difficult to read, especially the side links to guides etc.

The actual content of the site when viewed is about half the full size of the webpage 1/4 of the space of the browser being cut off by the rw light blue on each side.

Personally I think it needs to be changed and I brought it up because most people I know run on 1024 nowadays anyway.

I think it would make the page much more presentable to most viewers.

Thoughts?

This has already been addressed for RuneWeb 2, its still for 800 x 600 users, but more space is being used. A few months ago I realized RuneWeb isn't taking use of about 100px in width (which is a lot to not be using). So RuneWeb 2 fixes that its just gonna be quite some time till you see that.

You can always modify how it looks with your own browser, either increasing text size with IE or zoom with FFox.

You are wrong. By far most people still use 800x600.

Yeah,

In my opinion sites that take up a whole page dont look that good so runeweb looks good to me since im using the same as tangerz =)


Also the most common resolution is 1024 x 768 and up .

Really?

On both my computers + my cousins + 2 of my friends the page is compressed.

Are you guys referring to runeweb forums or www.runeweb.net?

That's what they're referring to.

I'm on 1280 x 1024 on my main computer and I see it very clearly. 1280 x 800 on the laptop and that works just fine too.

Maybe the forums are a bit compressed on lower resolutions.

Eh, I disagree. I'd say most are to 1024x768. Concidering most factory computers are 1024x768+. I use 1280x1024 and I don't have a problem with the page at all, guess I'm just used to it.

It doesn't matter though, use CSS, format it to all resolutions
