I have a humble request of this forum:

If you all wouldn’t mind helping me finish up grad school, go ahead and fill out this nifty little survey I’ve thrown together (it’ll probably only take about five minutes) as accurately and honestly as you can.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeRT117Dbe6QJ00l7rkchyvzsc57ik1JPPzLno8YBZtqbTtHQ/viewform

I’ll be very grateful for any responses generated from OT.com! Love you guys.

I answered no to the ‘Do you play video games?’ question, so I only got to answer two questions. 😉

That’s fine! Everything matters. Thanks man!

You should play video games though.

Can we use up some of the crazy whitespace on larger displays?

Sorry, I broke the image link. It’s fixed now, but it looks basically like Jeebus posted.

As to what to fill it with, that’s why I mentioned responsive design. Make the content flow out to fit larger displays better. Have fonts and divs get larger and whatnot. That kinda thing.

I really like this new design, though. Lots of improvements over the previous!

Thanks for the compliments.

It is a responsive design…and it’s actually the same width it was before the update 😃

The overall size of elements is smaller based on previous feedback that everything was too big. I might tweak some of the font sizes though.

Yeah, I really do love the layout and font choices and buttons and everything with the new layout. It feels like it’s matured very well. I think it’s perfect as it is now on mobiles and tablets in terms of design.

Just having the width of the main container and its children, along with font sizes (just by a few pixels, I like smaller fonts in general) expand along with monitor width would really be awesome for desktop.

Thanks for responding, Jay!

Currently there is a ton of whitespace around the main content of the pages on my 1920x1200 display, while everything else is very small and packed into the middle 960 pixels. It probably looks great on mobile, but it’s really compressed on desktop-sized monitors.

Could we get a bit of responsiveness in the design to let the elements spread out as display width increases? Maybe throw in some breakpoints or percentage sizing?

Thanks!

For what it’s worth, I don’t understand the attractiveness of the abuse of substances either. I can’t stand being drunk.

People get dependent on them.

Yeah, I originally had a line where I said “Outside of addiction I don’t understand…” but I rewrote that entire second paragraph about ten times and forgot to put it back.

I’ve studied a lot about addiction and how it works. It’s incredibly sad.
