site needs to be edited a bit...

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

For this reason alone.. when browsing, even at FULL WINDOW, F11-ed. the side advertisement banner takes 100% pure guaranteed effect that it will remain on the screen. the window doesn't widen or scroll to adjust for larger pictures, it merely cuts off half of the picture, and shrinks the posts down to a uncomfortable to read size, and lets the advertisements stay in perfect sizing with a 1/2" white border on each side... maybe whoever designed the site was running a outrageous resolution, and they never noticed it.. but something needs to be done about this..

this is my window at 75% screen width...

You are using Mozilla, why are you not using Adblock + ?

What are these ads you speak of?

I see nothing of the sort that you're seeing OP. It seems like an issue on your end, because no matter what I look at it on, I have no problems viewing anything. I've checked it in all browsers, on my phone, and on my iPad.

Quite demanding aren't we? The resolution on the computer that the site was designed on has nothing to do with how it works on your computer. If we see numerous complaints about the issue it will be resolved, but right now it looks to be an issue related directly to your computer.

That is because you are using your browser at full scree. Cut your browser in half and see how it can be a pita

Why would I be running my browser at anything other than full screen? That's just silly.

EDIT: Just for reference, here's mine at 75%:

OP, I think your resolution might be the culprit. Seems like you have your resolution turned way down, making your images, ect huge.

Think about it this way:

Are Leprechauns really that small, or do they just look that way compared to the rainbow?

Come back when you know the correct answer. Be prepared to show your work.
