The Wetpaint site layout
Nov 2 2010, 10:45 PM EDT | Post edited: Nov 2 2010, 10:45 PM EDT
Hello! I already know about the fixed-width layout and now have it on my website, but afterwards I was kind of disappointed that I didn't get the drop-down lists as well like those that are on this site (like the arrow next do "Disussions" and how when you scroll over it the list of categories appears). I have seen the drop-down lists on one other website, which also had the fixed-width, and assumed they came with it, but now I see that they don't.

Were the drop-down lists once apart of the fixed-width layout but now aren't? And is their anyway to acquire them for my own site?
If not, thats perfectly fine, I just thought it would be a great navigation tool to have.

Thank you for reading!

It was not part of the layout changes, but you can still get them. :)

Just message Jeremy and give him the URL of site, which ones you want changed, how you want them changed, and the links to connect them to.

I do not understand what this "layout" is?

"
I'll just post basically what it is, summed up by CryingDove:
"Wetpaint Central and some other sites are now using the 1024 fixed width page format. Your graphics and tables that are there used to expand the right edge of your screen. One had to scroll to the right to see all your images and your friends list. The ability to expand the right border of the page has been eliminated and is now fixed. So you may want to resize your images and tables to fit the screen."
So basically, Wetpaint changed the fixed layout size.

Excellent! Thank you for your help! I'll have to think of how I want them to be set up now, haha. Do you find this valuable?
