[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 225027, member: 1"] Hey, guys. Sorry for the problems. The new scrolling issue is due to the recent addition of the Gander Mountain ad at the top of the pages. That is going to run for a few months. Adding together the width of all three images up there effectively makes it a single 1,000 pixel wide single image. That fits without sideways scrolling for 94% of our users. The other 6% either have older monitors with maximum 800x600 resolution or newer monitors set to the lowest Windows XP default of 800x600. In XP you can change resolution of modern monitors by following these instructions: [B][U][URL="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/personalize/resolution.mspx"]Changing screen resolution in Windows XP[/URL][/U][/B] As to speed, I always hold my breath hoping we are fast enough. That is such a subjective thing, what with the potential for individual misbehaving computers. For example, mine has been misbehaving for several months. It is only 5 months old and I have had repeated problems with it. On the other hand, my wife's laptop on the same internet connection loads all the pages faster. Just yesterday I saw on some site somewhere? the info that ranked our site speed as in the top 84% of all websites. Wish I could remember where that was. But I still hold my breath because I feel very responsible to you guys for a good surfing experience on my site. Varminator, are you able to tell me the resolution of your screen, is it modern enough that you can set it higher? [/QUOTE]
