Text not all visible
I am having a problem with viewing the text in some of the discussion board messages. It's not always wrapping properly, or whatever the right technical term is, so I can't see it all without scrolling right. I presume this problem is at my end? What do I do?
Thanks.

No, not just you. I see this quite frequently. It often happens when someone posts a fairly large sized image. Something of 1024 x 768 or more will enlarge the width of the board and will make you scroll to the right.
John is working on a fix for this. Mainly, a way to automatically reduce the size of a picture if it is too large.

If you use IE 6, it has a feature that automatically reduces images if it's set. Also, the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/previous/webaccess/ie5wa.asp" target="_blank">IE web accessories kit</a> will allow you to "Zoom out" large images so they'll fit the current page dimensions. MS says that they're only for version 5, but they work fine with 6. Try them.
