Forum Stretched for Guests

[Laughing Assassin]

Ok I've noticed that when i signed out of my forum it appears stretched but it looks fine when i log in. The only difference that i can think of that could be causing it is the guest advertisements, now i don't mind the adverts being there as i guess thats all part of having a free forum. What i do object to is the advertisements spoiling the layout of the forum and making it look naff, as you can imagine not a great first impression for visitors.

Here are a a couple of screen shots to show what I'm on about

However if I'm wrong about the ads causing it could someone please advise on another possible reason, none of the templates have been edited.

Did you try using another browser like firefox?

[Laughing Assassin]

can't as yet cos stuck at work, will try all browsers when i get home, however it's worth saying didn't have any problems when i first set up the forum.

Sure just check it on firefox.
Also, by the way i did not find any difference in the two images you posted.

Scroll across to the right on the images, you will see the bottom one fits fully in and the top one cuts off some of the right hand side.

The problem is that the Google ads have a minimum width which cannot be changed, and there are widgets on both sides of your board. You have a choice: live with the problem and have people complain about the scrolling, or remove the widgets from one side of your board.

Thanks for confirming Dion, thought that the ads were at fault.

Since this thread appears to be solved, I will lock this thread and mark it as solved.
