Regarding the Code::Blocks homepage design contest
rickg22:
It looks good!
There are some inaccuracies in the handbook, but these can be fixed later. Now it's only matter of adding screenshots to the descriptions, and voila! :)

hello per
what i don't like in your design, is the fixed width of the layout.
On my 1280x1024 screen, a third of the available screen area is wasted on the left and the right side as blank vertical stripes.
i would prefer a layout which dynamically uses the available width of the browser window.
but i also think it looks really good and professional,
continue your good work

tiwag, you might need to look at http://mellan.dyndns.org/codeblocks/help/ :)

@tiwag: it seems you haven't read the previous posts. Click on the two vertical sidebars at the bottom right, which are like "| |", and it will toggle to full width ;)
@per: Yes, I like the handbook!

per_eckerdal:
Take a look at the two (or one in IE) links on the right side of the footer: the | | (|< >| in IE) icon toggles between fixed and fluid width layout.
Why I chose a fixed layout is that screens are harder to read, you must either have large row distance or narrow width (or, like what I've done here: a combination).
The higher resolution, the harder it is to read, and the smaller is the width of the page, so I find fixed-width web pages quite natural because it keeps the readability quite constant.
