Well, when I originally designed the new site I was never going to break
the border on the right hand side of the screen. All the graphics were
just going to be in that little space under the nav bar. You wouldn't have
to scroll to the left and down, just down. That would have made it nice
for both resolutions. And the only thing you'd miss in 800x600 mode would
be a little bit of the graphics on the bottom and the copyright info. As
for when you got into the site, I figured if you got that far you wouldn't
mind scrolling down a bit to see stuff. The fact that the site is centered
in the browser as opposed to aligned to the left is a problem too. Just
one of many things I want to fix when I get time...
As far as the incorrect grammar goes, I know about it. Again, one of many
projects on the list for the web.
