Twitter

I want some opinions on my Twitter background. Just something very simple that took less than 10 minutes to make. I just couldn't find a nice font that was appropriate.

 

Got a link or something where it can actually be seen?

If I need a twitter account then I'll not see it..

 

here ya go - It's Alex. (switchfx) on Twitter

I really like that background. Nice job.

 

Using Firefox 3.5.4

The box on the left side is partially covered. See attached.

 

How small is your screen resolution? o.O

That was made to fit a 1200 x 800 screen. I use 3.5.5 and the box comes out perfectly in it and any other browser.


Edit: *Signs* Gnatster, please maximize your browser's window so it will show properly.

 

Like it overall - just the gray on white is not exactly the best contrast, IMHO. Other than that, looks great!

 

I like it
btw,, I didn't know that was you :rofl:

 

It's much worse for me; about 50% of the text is covered. For example, the first line only goes up to "I'm Alex, and". That's it.

My screen resolution is 1024x768.

 

I'm using FF 3.5.4 with a screen res of 1440 x 900.

It looks perfect.

 

I like it

How did you do that? I haven't looked into any special Twitter backgrounds, but I figured I should since all I have are repeat/tiled pics.

My resolution is 1680x1050, and I NEVER maximize my browser windows.

I say bring it down to 1000 or so wide in TOTAL or you're going to have a TON of people looking at a horrible page (in their minds).

 

*Sighs*

Maximize it, and it works. It's an auto expanding content box, that's how Twitter is coded. I had a friend look at it who uses 4 screens, if he resized the window, it looked off. Maximized? Looked normal.

If I look at Alissa Sheley's twitter page, it looks wonky. Because I use 2 rows of taskbar space, and I can't see everything that's under her picture. Twitter just needs to setup a real content area where we can stick our stuff in. No pun intended.

Although, whoever designer her page, and I'm guessing it was her, did a fantastic job.

 

My browser window is always maximized. I'm not on some huge monitor, or even remotely decent-sized monitor - I'm on a mere 1024x768 resolution and no matter what, I cannot see all of it. Every single Twitter page I visit with one of those content bars on the side is like that - I even thought that's how it is supposed to be. Apparently, it's not, and my monitor/resolution is the problem.

 

That is a small monitor. You should ask 'santa' to buy you a new one this xmas. :lol:

 

My twitter bg fits just perfectly for huge and small screens, and it's cute too.

I like yours though, it would have been nice if it fit all monitors. XD

 

Small monitors should be abolished.

 

Amen brotha! :yes:

 

really nice background .......... nice work mate

 

Nice, love the simplicity of the design.
