If your background setting is Subsilver 2 then you can see the pic below in a full image. The default Racketboy background results in a reduced image.
This is an issue with the Subsilver background then. There should be auto size reducing for anything that breaks the margins - to help with people who view the site on smartphones.

Oh and I found Metroid 2 cart only for $1.90

I'm not in the know on that VMU...how is it like the examples? Why should we be salivating over something that's $5 on eBay?

It's a very hard to find color.

Don't add to my problems by pretending my past views are still held in the present. I do not have any patience for that. Feel free to ask me what I think now.
