Hi there! Sorry to hear that you're experiencing problems with larger avatar sizes. However, given the case, I don't intend to rework the code behind the profile section. If you look at the vanilla prosilver style, you'll see that it has the same problem--just on the right of the post instead of the left. The issue is that prosilver has an inherent semi-liquid layout, so placing the profile section to the left as I've done makes everything shift when the bug comes up, whereas prosilver's layout means that while the avatar itself overlaps the boundaries of its box, it does not move anything else in doing so.
Essentially, given that this bug is inherited from the original prosilver style, I don't feel it is an urgent issue, and as such I don't currently plan on fixing it. If this is an issue for you, I'm afraid I have to suggest that you reduce the maximum size permitted for user avatars, or, alternatively, pick a style that displays profile information to the right of posts, since that will largely negate the issue. (I don't mean that in any kind of sarcastic or mean way, by the way; I hope you don't take it that way.
)
Thanks for letting me know about the search bar dropping off the header--I honestly missed that when testing the style. Off the top of my head, I don't know if I can fix it easily, seeing as the content of the box itself will vary from board to board, but I'll see what I can do about it for the next release.

sure thing, i just didnt know if you could tell me where the CSS to specify a stoppoing min imum width of the board is loacated. i tried.
#wrap {
padding: 0 20px;
min-width: 650px;
}
and changing "650" but it didnt seem to do anything at all.
it works fine in full screen, even with 200avs, its just when you try to do it ina minimized window it gets jacked up.
as for the forum titles, yea, changing it to 400 seemed to work just fine. it made the long lines of text go down to the next row, so it all fit.
anyways, thanks, but if you know how to set the min width when rezizing the whole forum, or to jsut makeit a fixed width then let me know. thanks.

So you're saying that when you shrink the screen enough, the board expands beyond the window and you get a horizontal scroll bar? If so, that's the behaviour that the
min-width parameter sets--it stops the box in question from becoming any less wide than 650px, in this case. I'm not really sure what you're asking for, though: what kind of result are you aiming to get? I'd like to help, but I'm just not sure what the desired effect is. no, when you make the window smaller, by the time the horizontal scroll bar pops up the avatars have already went over the line that seperates the poster info from the topic. so they spill over top of the words in the topic. here is an image.

it seems liek the line that seperates the poster info and avatar stops at like 5 pixels wider than a 100px avatar. so with a 100px avatar it wont let the avs flood over. as you can see, with a 200px av they flow over into the topic. i would like to figure out how to get that line to stop at more than 200px. so that even if you keep making your brower window smaller it wont break the design.

you might be right, maybe i wanst paying attention. im going to chage 650 to 950 and see if it fixes it.
ok, when i change it to "1080" it stops it in the right spot from flowing over. but it also makes the scroll bar come up pretty fast so there really isnt much of a point to it.
i guess i woul like for it to still size down to 650, but never let the avatars flow over into the topic, and if it needs more room the text will continue to jsut flow down making the topic taller.
here is my edits.

so look like that but scale to the smaller orignal size of 650. make the divider like 220 away from the online indicator, so it leave a 10px gap on each side of the avatar.
hopefully this clears it up, i know im not very good at describing my problems. and you can see why i couldnt figure it out. i tried editing different lines and couldnt get it right.

I do see what you mean. Sorry for the misunderstanding earlier, by the way. In any case, expanding the minimum width of the entire board seems a bit of an inelegant solution to me, but if it works for your needs as well as your users', then it should be good. I've only played around with the parameters for a few minutes, but it looks like getting something more efficient implemented--ideally, a setup that will affect only the size of the profile box on small displays rather than the whole board--would take more work than just some changes made at midnight here and there. If it's any consolation, though, you can always use the
Maybe there's a totally obvious solution here that doesn't compromise like the two here, but if so, I'm too tired right now to find it. Here's hoping you find a solution to the problem you're experiencing sooner or later, though--if I think of anything, I'll be sure to let you know.
overflow attribute to avoid having to add a huge minimum width to the board, although the compromise there is that large avatars will only be partially shown on smaller resolutions (for example, using the overflow: hidden; attribute would ensure that there's no overlap of the postbody text, but it would also cut off the section of the avatar that's too large for its box).Maybe there's a totally obvious solution here that doesn't compromise like the two here, but if so, I'm too tired right now to find it.

ok, thanks alot, ill keep working on it.
