just a quick question
I just joined and wanted to say hi to everyone. Also, I noticed that the forum runs off my screen. Anyone else notice that? melanie

Hi Melanie and welcome to Guitar Tricks,
I don't have an answer as to why the Forum runs off your screen, I presume you mean horizontally. Benoit or Jon Broderick probably can answer your question on that PDQ. If I can be of any other help about guitar, let me know.
Best wishes,
Bobby Howe

My best guess would be that the forum is too large for your monitor. Does it run off literally, or do you need to scroll over to read the rest of the page? On my dad's PC I have to scroll over to read some things.

Yeah, sounds like it's your screen resolution. If I set mine to 800 x 600 the forum wraps off the screen, but if I set it tp 1024 x 768 it's OK....
try that... and welcome to GT... :)

I don't own a Mac.. so don't know how to on a Mac.. but I think the only real difference is in the wording and method of bring up the menu.. For example, the slider that sets the screen resolution says "Screen Area" instead, I think..
