Fixed width designs are popular with graphic artists because they can force everything to look exactly the way they want it. On their monitor. With their browser. For those of us that don't use exactly the same display resolution or browser (and fonts), the result is usually disappointing at best. The new site looks like #$^% and is very difficult to use, for example, on a PDA with Pocket Internet Explorer. - Bob _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
