[Template] Different widths for header & content

[anonymousandy]

I keep having a problem where it looks fine for me, but is cutting off for my friend. If you could help I'd really appreciate it. ^_^

Have you set your board header width in pixels or percents? Because if it is fixed (px) and the user's resolution is slighter than your own, the image is going to get cut off:

Say your header is 2000px wide, but your friend's resolution is only 1200px wide, the image is going to be cut off. Because from the images it's what it looks like to me.

I set my width to 100% and the problem is still there. If I take it off % it will just make it so she has to scroll to see the entire banner instead of see it just as a whole.

Well if your banner itself is wider than her screen resolution, it still is going to get cut off. So it's not so much the header's width at this point so much as your banner's width.

I think I saw a thread at one point where there was a way for the banner to size up or down to fit the screen resolution, I'll have to see if I can't find it.

Not to butt in, but I found this code extremely useful on my site. We have members who use everything between 800 x 600 to television screens with gigantic resolutions, so this code allowed us maximum flexibility.

/* Logo scales with Forum Width */
#banner { height: 100%; padding: 0px; }
#banner-container, #banner { display: block; }
a#logo img { max-width: 100%; }
a#logo { font: inherit; }
#banner { margin-bottom: -3px; }

One of the admins gave this code to me... I'm not sure who wrote it in the first place, though. :/

Ah, that makes sense, if you can find it a link to it would be very much appreciated tyvm ^_^!

Hi Paul sorry if I asked or missed it but is there a way to set the length size of the banner?

Actually just saw the class

Without a tag it's lucky I saw this - wander into this board less often than I should. =X

Any chance you could elaborate a little on what you mean by 'length size'? Not entirely sure what you're looking for. =]

Actually found it out I wanted to make the banner shorter and give it a facebook sort of style
