I'm the non-techie type and need some help with this site. My picture post only goes about halfway across the page on my PC. When CBid loads it also goes about 2/3 of the way across. I'm missing some of the picture.

Is there a way to fix? Does it have to do with setting up frames? Help needed.

This may be a dumb question, and I'm sorry if it is, but is there a slide bar thingie at the bottom of the window? If there is and you can slide that bar to the right to see the rest of the window, all you need to do is click on the maximize button (the square, between the _ and the X) in the upper right corner of the window. An alternative to maximizing the window would be to grab the right hand border of the window (move the mouse cursor close to the edge and it will change into something else) and move it to the right, making the window larger.
If there isn't a slide bar thingie and you can't maximize the window, you're screwed! :) Just kidding, call your friendly tech support rep.

If you close out all windows, and right click on the desktop, you'll get a menu. Select "Properties" from that menu. Then you'll get the properties for your display. Select the TAB that says "Settings". On the "Settings" TAB, you'll see something called "resolution". Change your resolution to at least 800 X 600. Also, make sure your color quality is as high as you can get. Then select "OK".

Fred, there's no slide bar and the screen is max'd. Tar, you got it. I changed the settings and then changed them back. The picture post is in full bloom.

Thx

What are you veiwing it with? Some veiwers automatically resize the image for display purposes, but this won't happen when it's part of an HTML document. Make sure you're viewing it at 100% and not 66% or 50%.
