    Hi all! I posted this elsewhere in another thread I had started, but it seems more appropriate here. Is there any way to code a workaround for a banner to fit on all screens, regardless of resolution? Right now my banner on http://snackerrific.com doesn't all fit on the screen for lower resolutions, and apparently the background image doesn't either. I appreciate your help!

    You could rewite parts of the css file to make it fluid. (google if you don't know).
    This has been an age old problem. Some have approached it with several css files for different sizes, using java to read the browser settings which logs on and then serves up the right size css file/screen. (lots of work). The new approach is to design the web from the beginning to be Fluid. It's the way you code the css. Lower sceen sizes should just require the viewer to scroll a little more. I wouldn't worry about 800x600 or lower as most screens are set higher. Last I looked only 18% were using screen size of 800x600.
