How about adaptive screen resizing? This forum should natively support any display it’s on. NOT be extremely narrow as it is right now.
Y’know, it’s really easy as fuck HTML5 coding with a bit of CSS3 thrown in:
@media only screen and (max-width: 480px) and then @media only screen and (min-width: 1900px) including greater.
I’m viewing this forum on a 1080p display. It should automatically fit the width of the display within an appropriate wrapper which should be around 85% and a margin which could be at 5%. If I were to view on a full 4K monitor it should be adaptive to it also.
The old forum was better for proper forum width.
EDIT: Also, small icons to see if a user is online or not next to their avatar. How’s about a small on/off one which is green for on and empty while off?
