The one time I tried it, I noticed this immediately. That was the ultimate deal-breaker for me; even if it looked nice (which it doesn't, it's hideous), I wouldn't use it for that reason.gtmtnbiker wrote:Did you notice that pages seem to load up more slowly in AcidTech?

I just don't like it. Guess I'm not elite.

As I've noted before, I use Subsilver2 because Acidtech and Glossyblue are hobbled with a tiny set width that wastes 2/5 of my browser real estate.

Yeah, the fixed width can get annoying when people post large pictures.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Yeah, only Glossyblue has been bothered to be customized properly. Acidtech has a halfhearted attempt to tweak it and the others are totally default. I'd use Glossyblue if it wasn't width gimped.BoringSupreez wrote: But that bottom one looks so... sterile and bland. Entirely un-Racketboy like.

When I finally got myself a widescreen monitor, fixed width was applied to the default skin shortly after. So I only got to enjoy it for a short while.

I'm not even using a widescreen monitor. I am however on 1600x1200 with my browser taking a pretty good bit of it.Ziggy587 wrote:When I finally got myself a widescreen monitor, fixed width was applied to the default skin shortly after. So I only got to enjoy it for a short while.
