    Re: [100 points] Joomla template porting

    Funny. It's only doing it for the top post on the site you have visible. And yet there's nothing in that post that should be causing it (huge graphic).

    If you're getting the same thing on the new template, I'd look at the CSS as the probable likely culprit, with the positioning CSS (probably at the top). It's a 3-column layout, so it should be something like
    Col1 150px Col2 X% Col3 150px. I can't remember the exact phrasing, but the point is you have fixed-width on your first and 3rd columns, and the middle column expands to fill up the available space. Yours is going further than that, so check the numbers.

    Unless you have something invisible and very wide in that top post.

    EDIT: Oh yeah:
    For an average 4" X 6" print a resolution of 800x600 is considered good enough
    Oh no it isn't. 254dpi is the limit of human vision. 300dpi is considered the standard print resolution, so an 4"x6" photo would require a 1200 x 1800px image. Just FYI

    Look at the CSS. Post it/them here if you can't see anything wrong. Joomla isn't really my home ground- can you format the columns from the admin panel?
