Anyone have any comments on thumbnail size since the move? They are no longer being cropped but can end up a bit wide for small screens as a result.



I thought at first reducing thumbs height from 120 to 110px would solve the problem however, it would only be a solution for landscape images. Portrait thumbnails in a post like this would end up too small, which would be a shame.

The only other thing to do is detect landscape images and crop their sides a little so it's not as wide. Thoughts?

Happy with the new thumbnails
Let it take it's course for a fortnight or so then ask for feedback.
I do like that the page is loaded before I strart to scroll down

Can a maximun thumb width be set? that wouldn't affect portrait thumbs.
Also, could the fact that thumbs have a shadow be a cause of only 3 across, by pushing them apart more?

FYI They appear 4 across on my laptop not 3 (just checked a number of pages)

Not easily, but even if you did, you would want to preserve image ratio (prevent squashed and pinched appearance), which means you must reduce it's height as well. This would make them look very uneven on the page (which would be much worse).

This is what I see, a waste of screen space...

Maybe the member/avatar area could be made slightly narrower...

This is how I see it and I use Google Chrome as Browser

It's not the browser, it is the screen size that matters. Sharkboi's screen resolution is 1280x768 and pce229073's is 1354x779, so he can fit more on his screen.

Question is, where do we stop? About 30% of visitors use tablets which have an even smaller screensize, so for some of them it may only be 2 thumbs per row.

I can look an old post imported from the old site, and I see the same as you, but thumbs in posts made on this new site are only 3 across on my screen.
