Forum Screen Size Too Big for Screen
Been noticing that most of this forum's screen size is larger than my computers screen. Not sure why it's like this and I can't figure out how to fix it. This seems to happen when someone's post has a larger than normal picture. Any suggestions?

If you have low resolution monitor, or someone posts a picture that's very large in resolution, the margins can easily be an issue. In the latter case there is a product called The Image Resizer that can be customized per account to "resize" photos.

Go to The Image Resizer and enter a value for Image width that is lower than your screen resolution
Note that by default images larger than 1024px should be resized unless you have a value in the above noted Image width field.

Good thinking that if the font is too big, then using the mouse wheel with the control key will adjust the font size in the browser. Sometimes this inadvertently gets changed by the member.
I only noticed the part where the OP mentioned a picture being posted, which is why I suspected it may be due to the pictures being larger than the resolution of the member's monitor. The image resizer should help with that if that is the issue.
