I used to have a 2048 x 1200 (2 screens), but I'd spend more time playing around with my 2 screens than when I only had one, so I switched back to a 1600 x 1200.

ps: your legendary TM tags, afew, are barely visible on my screen

Isn't that part of the point? The best snark technology is subtle.

I meant it's particularly hard to see size-wise on my MEGA HUGE SCREEN THAT AFEW WISHES HE'D OWN TOO, but you're right. Damn you, you're always right!

You're the kind of guy who drives a mega-SUV down the narrowest streets in Toulouse and crushes humble passers-by like me against the wall. That's what I think.

You're the kind of guy who'd propose a lowest common denominator for the EU budget just because you wouldn't be able to cope with the idea that I get 22% of the CAP.

No, stop, that's below the belt. I'm not Bliar, all the same.

Re: Check this (none / 0)

I'd give that a 10 if my screen weren't so damn small...

Re: Check this (none / 0)

Oh shit. I'm so impressed. You used to have two, and now you've only got one, it's much bigger than mine. I bet you have fun playing around with it. Wow. How can I live this down?

I'm going to have to stick up for myself, if you see what I mean. Er... As you know since you stole my code (watch out, there's a DRM in there, and when that new French law gets voted in before Christmas, you'll be right in the shit), I just used the small font size from the ET style sheet for my tag, so presumably, ET is kinda vaguely designed with less enormous screens than yours in mind.

Anyway, small is beautiful. Hah.

Re: Check this (none / 0)

Aha but you're only saying this because you haven't touched my screen yet, do you want to touch it, do you want to touch it?

Re: Check this (none / 0)

Well, can I just have a look at it first?

Re: Check this (none / 0)

Well, you might get eyesore. You know these babies have to be approached in careful steps.
