The same thing on my end. I have to scroll side to side to read the posts. Does anyone know how I could fix this?

Well mine seems to be the opposite....
the page is all pushed together .... it use to fill my screen,
now it's 11" wide and much longer?
I've also got like 5" of " lace " per side....
Any one.....?

Check the screen settings on your computer, you may need to change it to 1024 x 768. When I change mine to 800 x 600, it does the same thing as yours.

I dont have the problem of scrolling side to side. But it doesnt fill the entire screen from side to side.

It looks a lot better now. You shouldnt have to change your resolution settings, it had to of been something that the editor of the forums didnt enter in the correct size of the forum in the window.

yeah sorry it was on some "too wide" for some fixed width. It's more fluid now.

I appreciate the feedback in this section even if we don;t always reply to them all its a good indicator how people experience this site.

I tried to change mine to 1024x768 and it really got funky! IM on the highest setting and it looks the best yet the site still has a lot of "border" on both sides. Maybe its something with my computer? Uh I gotta figure this out!

This started this week and I used to have race-dezert.com/forum as my home page, now it bumps back to the front page even with (http://www.race-dezert.com/forum/) in the Options were you enter your home page?

wow.
Odd.
What version of IE on what OS is that?
I would guess some form of browser setting changing the look and feel of what it is.

Clear cache to make sure you load the current stylesheet might give you your navigation back. Not sure on the brown take over.

I'm using FireFox 3.0.10, on Windows Vista Home Premium, some time back I switched my back ground to brown so I could see the drop down list, this is now set at use websites back ground and colors!

the drop down background is a known flaw that will be addressed.
Safari doesn't have that issue.
