1280x800 (16:10) on my laptop and still having issues with the width of the site.
(OK, I'm also using "vertical tab bar" in FireFox)

I'd say a site should be maximally 1024 pix wide.
(800 wide is even better for "total" compatibility)

Sorry, WXGA _CAN'T_ be the criterion for a website! Just can't.

gufu1992 1)Where are the forum profiles, and ability to edit those easily? I can't find it in normals ways, and therfore I have to enter through a thread.
2)Fan Section. Where did it go?

Hey, otherwise I love the site... except the entire "Trying-to-get-back" part.

Primitive? First time I've heard that. Truth is there are some things that are better about the new site. They don't get mentioned much, however. The speed of downloads seems to be much better. It may not be as visually appealing to some and there are some bugs still but I am getting the impression that Abandonia is positioning itself to move into the future with things (resources) that weren't possible before.

The body of the car might not be as flashy yet, but the engine feels more powerful.

jg007 I have been busy with other sites recently but I will have to say that I am not really in favour of the new site so far, The chatbox is probably the biggest omission at least for me, although I didn't post in it that much it was always entertaining to read

the other problem I seem to have is that it keeps logging me out so I keep on having to log in again which is a pain.

I know I havent been on here for as long as others but it is probably only because I joined before the change that I still look here occasionally as it does seem a lot less welcoming although that is not aimed at the people just the overall site design.

Dave Yeah I remember, but maybe it's because he posted before the site changed. (you can see our bugged quotes)
