Lots of people are always posting really helpful/thoughtful/useful things, so I decided to add a little thumbup feature for the site! Let me know if you love it/hate it

Hehe... I love this feature on one of the other forums I go to. Hence the reason I suggested it to one of you guys not long ago. :P

Yeah, I had already planned on it when you suggested it. Feel free to make more suggestions

But... will you already have planned on them, making my suggesting them a futile effort?

How do we test this conundrum?

So, can we make the site just that extra 2 inches on each side wider? I mean... there is alot of real estate wasted there...

Or even use it for advertisements that I'll certainly use flashblock or some similar program on... I mean... wasted space is just so... wasted?

Yeah, I want to make it full width but darin has been opposed. I'll bug him about it in the future.

Too bad he's busy starving since all the blocked ads don't feed him

That almost made me wince with a bad feeling. I don't click ads on webpages anyway, I just block them because many of them make noises or flash or some other annoying thing, and always eat up cache in my browser.

When you get 100 tabs open like I do, in 2 windows, that tends to kill your memory, so I just started blocking them all, since, in my case, they were a waste of space.

Why would someone be opposed to going fullscreen? That intrigues me, other than to save that space for ad revenue.

It's easier to control the layout of your content when you know exactly how much room you'll have regardless of screen size.

Anyway, most of our ads here are based on impressions, not clicks, so blocking does actually make a difference.

Poor starving darin!

How does that work? I'm not sure I understand it?

In that case, I won't block them. I don't think I currently have any blocked from this site, I just mentally ignore them, for the few times I see them.
