Hmmm... Personally, I would code it so that every image on Planet fit into a certain dimension parameter (150px X 150px or something). Then, the page would always look consistent. On other page, I would always add images as clickable thumbnails so that people could view the larger image if need be. But... That's just me.<br><br>It seems like images should be adjusted for thre page parameters, not the page altered for the image parameters.<br><br>Tim<br><br><br><blockquote style="border-style: none none none solid; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color rgb(34, 67, 127); border-width: 0pt 0pt 0pt 2px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 5px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 5px;"><font face="verdana" size="2">--- Original message follows ---<br><b>Subject: </b>Re: Community Page (and responding to Neils)<br><b>From: </b>Niels Breet <niels@maemo.org><br><b>To: </b>"Tim" <tim@samoff.com>,"List for community development"

It would be nice if the content<br>then would fill the body and not leave an empty sidebar.<br><br>><br>><br>> I'm proposing this because I'm a little hesitant to say we should<br>> have pages without a sidebar.
