    Dont likey the new board formatting.

    I have seen many many posts so far where a line of text was Soo long that I had to scroll over quite a bit. Why is there no word wrap option?

    It makes some of the boxes different sizes and annoys this little hobbit to no end. Change scares me. Somebody hold me......

      If a single piece of text (i.e. one word) is longer than the display space, the board won't word-wrap it. It can't.

      So, be considerate of your fellow users, try not to scream with a single word long enough to cause displays to warp.

      The same holds true for image files. Large images will cause the same thing.

        The same was also true of ezboards.

          That's polar bear, Suma! And I've got lots of warm, soft fur for the protection of the hugged! I save the cold nose in the ear for people who are dozing off or misbehaving.

                  The reason it happened so much less there was because ezboard would mutilate long URLs which cause most of the havok.

                        ...?

                        I'm completely, utterly confused. Those really long lines... didn't cause a problem. (Go 1280 by 1024 screen resolution maybe?)
