I have little Willy, big font in Firefox... all 3 puters and big Willy, little font in IE... all 3 puters. I'm sure it will be an easy fix.  I am busy changing passwords...  3 people got deleted last night. I wonder who the other two were...

speaking of big and small gnomes.... I asked the crew to line up for a pix so I could see who needs cleaning up, fixing up, or shrinking down before I start putting them on pages... ... about half the crew showed up

I did some font fixing so pages will look the same on IE as they do on FF... I resized some elements to fix the squishability of pages... I changed a couple colors... ... but I still can't get little Willy to grow up to full size on FF... still working on that in between other stuff... Are the fonts clear and readable for everyone? Do the pages resize themselves to fit the screen? Is it Friday yet? (<---- note: these pages are live now ---->)http://www.thegardenhelper.com/gardenerindex.htmlhttp://www.thegardenhelper.com/

First I am using IE1) yes the fonts are clear readable for me...--still a bit big for my 17 inch screen but nothing I can't work with. It rreally is no big deal for me to go from side to side when I am using those pages  2) if they are suppose to resize to fit my screen nope that is not happening--BUT for all I know it may well be me that is the problem, not your site.  and like I say, it is no problem for me to go from side to read what I ned to read. 3) nope, I am afraid it is still Tuesday--at least it is in Illinois.

I re-tagged the pages to be 1160px wide or if your res setting is higher, it will stretch to fit the screen. If your res is set lower (800x600?) you may have to scroll a bit. If you reset your res higher (1260x?) the fonts will look more proportionate.... I think.... and other sites may look better too... I think.... even if your monitor is 17"... I think....  I think I will ask Moguai to check what I said.... I hate sticking my foot in my mouth!

Honestly, in today's market, it doesn't make sense to cater to users with 800x600 screens; in all honesty a baseline minimum should be 1024-1280 width...

well since I am computer illiterate I will try to get my SIL over here ASAP to check my screen width--
I assume you are referring to a setting on the computer??
But I must say I did not always have to scroll side to side, and no I do not rememebr when it began that I had to scroll.
but I thank you both so very much---I am sure you both have larger fish to fry right now, so not to be concerned about me--I was just trying to answer Bill's questions as I saw things on my computer.
BTW:
I thought a 17 inch screen was a good thing?????

It is sized for my screen. But I don't know what you're talking about as far as the rose symbols being aids for navigating the site. Also, I need to get you a gnome dressed in red, white and blue.

Is willy still supposed to be " growing"? When I click on that link he fades in. I didn't see any mention of that so I just wanted to check. I do have to scroll side to side but I'm on a netbook with a 10.2" screen so I'm sure it's me and not you. The fonts are clear and readable here.

I do have to scroll side to side but I'm on a netbook with a 10.2" screen so I'm sure it's me and not you. The fonts are clear and readable here.  I really preferred Willy 'running up' to greet visitors, but for right now, I had to give up and move forward, so I substituted the 'fade in' Willy. I will come back to Willy later... The breadcrumbs are barely visible now that I raised the sky by a bit. Right now there are only three colons put there to save work later on when I have a data set in place. They won't work until I do a few more things (scripting etc.) My plan is to set a script that will change the gnome to another one each time a different directory page loads. I have 15 gnomes ready but I havent done the script yet... soon... Thank you all for the continuing input! It has been a BIG help so far!

Hmmm... 5 hours without any posts... Well, after several failed attempts today, I finally got one of my gizmos to work right... mostly anyway. Mouse over or click the Plant Profiles button I'll be using that script on lots of pages. The "profile menu" is pretty extreme on this one!

OK that page worked fine. I got a list of plants from African violets to peace lily. Is peace lily the last plant listed? Because if there are more plants beyond, I found no way to access them.

Oh OHHHHHH.... Peace lily is only halfway down the list. I didn't anticipate that...  Do you have a scroll wheel on your mouse? Doesn't everyone???? You can get to the bottom that way... Whoops....

I can't find it, but somewhere in here I was mumbling something about how many pages there are left to do if I kept on trucking at it for years.. Uncle Google just informed me that I have ads on at least 11,018 different, tracked pages... Oh, GOOOODY! whoops.... 11,401... wrong graph...

I don't know where to ask this. My screen is opposite from what it usually is. I don't know how I did it. The calendar and shout box is now on the left (facing the screen) and I don't know how to get it back on the right.
