@ Steven
I wasn't responding to you so it has nothing to do with your comment.
With regards to not noticing any difference it seems to me you didn't open
the pictures to actually see the difference.
Try opening them and notice that the 1st is about 60% white space and no
content while the modified full screen the content actually takes up the
screen real estate as it should.
As for highjacking, and by extension being rude, I offered to work with it
and Timothy replied
"Well, you can get what you need to fiddle with it by just saving the home
page to your local machine. There is one CSS file that controls the
styles; edit it and the HTML to taste and *share what you come up with*."
Later he said
"*Please do work on it*; this project is supposed to be about getting to the
best solution even if some toes are stepped on in the process. I draw the
line at personal insults/attacks/etc, but other than that it's best to
keep the arguments here instead of obliviously releasing a bad product and
having the criticisms all show up on various news sites and comment
boards. :-)"
I have done as Timothy asked and shared what I have come up with via
screenshots that clearly show a difference.
I have been in this discussion from the day it started (more than 48 hours
ago in my timezone) you come in 21 hours ago.
I can take criticism (when it has solid foundations) but you have accused
me of being rude and highjacking the thread based on your own
misunderstanding of the purpose my reply with the screenshots.
Please don't assume any further replies from me are directed towards you
unless I open them as I opened this one.
Cheers.
Michael.

Screenshots from my laptop
1st is original
2nd is modified full width
3rd is modified part width.
I don't understand what this has to do with my comments about the
*content* of the introductory screen shot. I made comments about what
should be seen in the screen shot, and you've hijacked the thread to
talk about something completely unrelated. That's not very polite.
Having said that, I don't understand what you think you are showing in
these screen shots. If there is a difference between the original and
the modified full width one, I didn't notice any.
Also, next time, if you must send such things, please use JPEGs rather
than PNGs as they will be much smaller in memory usage, with only a
slight degredation of quality, which for the purposes of showing what
your screen looks like is not important.
