Help Request Subject: Forums display in 4:3 with colored bars on the side instead of actually taking up all the space granted in 16:9

Specific people needed to read this: Not unless they designed the layout?

Summarize help request in one sentence:  For me the forums only use half the space on my screen and I have to scroll left and right on large images, is there any way I can make the layout fit the size of my screen?

Additional Info: Here's how I see the forums note the huge wasted blank space with colored bars on either side. (normally 1920x1080, currently the image is scaled down so it is easier to see) Look at that beautiful announcement image that I can't see!  :P


Importance level(low,medium,high): low, its annoying but I deal with it every day since forever.

Steam related?: nope

You are using the old CG Ferno. No Longer supported.
Switch to Virtex or Virtex Low Res for support.

Meh.  Boring all-blue theme but I guess boring-looking is better than looking pretty and being stuck with a small screen.

edit:  On vertex the drop-down menus don't work on moderate, profile, or my messages like they do on CG Blueferno, despite having arrows that suggest there should be a drop down  :-\

There's a lot less blue than I'm seeing in your picture :p I didn't quite like it 100% at first but I've gotten used to it.
This whole thing is a travesty.

For starters, Pillz is obviously the sexiest.

Thats the Vertex theme that is boring to look at and some stuff doesn't work :P

You have to click the arrows for them to drop down

This.

And anything that doesn't work on Vertex should be reported. Everything should work just fine.

Blueferno has contrast and is more pleasing than vertex which is all "Yo dawg I herd you like blue so everything is fuckin blue"

It just seems more simplistic and "professional" to me.
