The windows for composing posts are enormous! I'm not sure you want to encourage such a verbose group. Actually, I'd prefer a composing window that breaks more naturally. I lose my train of thought having to scroll back on such a lengthy line of text. This post for example, is all on one line (pre-posting) and hasn't even reached a line break yet.

I just realized the "huge window" is only on Netscape. It's fine on IE, about 80 percent of the page.

  • Oh, ok. It's fine on Navigator on the Mac, so I guess this isn't really a problem, as only total weirdos use navigator on windows ;-)

Anybody else have a feeling here? Somebody else really wanted it big, so I did it. I don't care much either way, but I do like it at least slightly bigger than before.

I could potentially make this configurable for each user, but I'm not sure this is really worth it. Maybe I should just make it a little smaller?

  • I'd say smaller, so there's a closer resemblance between what you're writing and how it looks when posted. (Maybe 70% of the window?)

    Using navigator on Windows is my little act of rebellion against the empire. Actually it's better than IE in a lot of ways (such as not filling up your drive with temp files).
