See http://www.w3schools.com/Css/pr_pos_overflow.asp and you'll want to add it to .threadpost

In theory you could also make a css entry for (I think...) .threadpostimg {} along these lines: http://phydeaux3.blogspot.com/2006/01/max-width-and-faking-it-for-ie.html (which will xplain why IE sucks).

As for why you have that dead space... You have a left margin :) Trim that down.

Go to the Extend tab and do a search.

You should be able to move your layout around by changing the theme's style.css file. I learned to create my theme by drastically changing one css setting at a time so it was obvious what the setting did, then getting it how I wanted. Learning what your theme's stylesheet does is essential if you're going to modify it in future.

Personally, I think there's nothing wrong with white space on a forum. It can give a much cleaner look.

It is also adding problems when I post images into a post. The image will be too big and will stretch across out of the board.

Example:
http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j300/AndyWilliams24/board.jpg
and
http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j300/AndyWilliams24/board2.jpg

Would moving the board over to the left help the image situation? If now how can I put a image size cap on?

Thanks in advance
