Oh, you meant SMF theme? Haha, I thought you meant GNOME theme.

...

A browser parses your GNOME theme? (Not your system parses your GNOME theme and applies it to your browser.)

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

It's actually due to font size, if you want to be able to fix it without changing themes.

Old themese don't use the scrolling, which is bad if somebod posts a big picture or a lot of code.

Mine does that, sometimes, too...depends on the site I'm at usually.

Might be an option.  Personally, I like it when there are overly wide pages/images so i can just scroll through that one post.

Yeah, it's normal for it to happen on the default theme when a post extends a resolution's horizontal limit.  However, Joe's example shows vertical scrollbars, which should never be present for a normal post.

For those curious (Quik will know this.  Sorry in advance if you do too.), it's the result of setting the CSS property overflow to auto. (overflow: auto;).

Why else would I continuously say what I have been? :p

I prefer older themes, because people should get bitched at when they post big pictures, and not just have the browser accomodate. I prefer the older, traditional method, but that's just personal preference. It shouldn't become an issue too often.

I've got that same problem, I knew it was the theme, but I've found that if there's a post with two or three verticle spaces <enter keys> after all the text, I don't get tat problem.

Mine does this all the time, on a default installation of Firefox. I don't complain.

You can probably fix it by shrinking the default font size.  But who really cares?

Making it one-bigger or one smaller fixed it. The encouragement I needed to make it smaller has finally arived. ^_^

You might be right about that, Joe.
