Display Error on Wide Screen
There seems to be some display error for the Wide Screen, perhaps the site has been optimised to be viewed on 1024 x 768 resolution monitor, but i reckon wide screens are quite the norm now.
I tried it on 2 different monitors on wide screen resolution as shown below :
Anyhow it's nothing serious
Well it really doesn't bother me that much as it only happens to the first post but i thought i'd just voice it. All i need to do is copy and paste the whole paragraph onto a notepad or words doc and i'll still be able to view them.

The overlap occured because in "view entire thread" layout, some1 posted a LARGE pic
in that specific thread, it is Z3 who posted that large 1024 pixel wide Seiko Diver picture. Usually, anything over 900 pixels usually results in overlap whenenver you "view entire thread", depending on what your monitor screen resolution is set at.
OVERLAP: View entire thread: home.watchprosite.com
NO OVERLAP: Individual post view: home.watchprosite.com
Notice there's no overlap in the Individual post view? Because there is no large picture in that specific post. In the View entire thread view, every post in that thread will be affected by any large picture.
Initially, the software platform was setup so there would NEVER ever be any overlap because the software platform would automatically shrink LARGE pics and make them smaller so they don't overlap on the right hand blog section. Several community members complained so we turned off that feature, and as a result, now you get overlap w/ the right hand blog section whenever someone posts a large pic.
I'm using the same resolution as you so I get overlap sometimes but not that often. You probably need a 24" widescreen or larger set at max resolution to have minimal overlap.

How about introducing a scroll bar within the page for when the pictures are too bad? That way it doesn't go too far out. Or could just reduce the space used for the corner text that is taking up the space. Or relocating these texts:
SITE: Horological Meandering
>> Horological Meandering - Masthead>> Horological Meandering - FORUM
>> Horological Meandering - BLOG
>> Horological Meandering - GALLERY
Anyway it's just random thoughts, hope you guys don't get offended. It's still a great forum and great site. Keep up the excellent work.
