    Maybe we could have more skinny themes? You know the ones that don't take up the entire browser. For example, I love Blossom Shower but I wish it was not so wide. =/ I forget the themes that are not wide but they look nicer IMO. None of them are as cute and pink as Blossom Shower though. XD

    Edit: Forever Standing is one of them.
     
    I, personally, think they're fine. But some themes would look cuter if they were skinnier. Maybe this could be implemented.​
     
    Themes that are wide now would look too strange skinny.

    ... I think I took a screenshot, but an example being when Audy showed us a "skinny" version of PokeLink 2.0.

    Plus I think the staff just prefer making wide themes XD;
     
    Well more skinny themes would be nice. They don't have to be versions of the wide ones we have now. I just want a skinny one that is really girly like Blossom Shower. XD
     
    ... Erica could probably just redesign Blossom Shower but a pink skin... kinda... I don't see many girly skins appearing since PC is unisex. But yeah, it seems to be a kinda good idea XD;
     
    PC is lacking skins with the colour pink, I agree. I'd use a pink skin if it looked nice, imo.
     
    Just gotta remember, that a population of PC users have screen resolutions greater than 1280x1024 and having a majority of skinny themes would make it nearly impossible for them to browse(unless they zoom in o3o)
     
    There are tons of wide themes for them to use.
     
    I honestly, would prefer the idea of slimmer skins. The only skins I do use are Forever Standing and Seeds of Platinum, both of which are "skinnier" skins, and, like Sachie, I'd prefer some more like that.
     
    What exactly is a fluid style?
     
    So it is the wide ones that are taking up the entire browser.
     
    :[ I think most of us like to design themes that stretch to fit the browser simply because of the wide range of resolutions these days. A theme that comfortably fits part of a 1024x768 screen that is "thin" compared to the fluid themes looks HORRIBLE on higher resolutions because of all the empty space. And one that's fixed-width to look great on 1280x800 stretches the page on 800x600 (which some people surprisingly still use). In order to make the theme work well for *everyone* that uses it, it's just easier to use a fluid design.

    I suppose a smaller percentage could be used so that some themes are "fixed" at, say, 60% of the screen or something though.
     
    Basically more fixed-width themes, the ones that are designed for a specific resolution or higher. I've always loved fixed-width themes but to be honest I haven't made any because I thought everyone wouldn't like it.. XD
    Been proved wrong I guess, maybe I'll make one soon~
     
    Ugh, to be honest even Pawlicious irritates me;

    Skinny themes may look better on smaller resolutions but on a 1800x1440 resolution it's just a pain in the ass.
     
    My resolution is 1600x1200 so its really a matter of opinion.

    Yal have tons of the "Fluid themes". It would be nice to have a few more skinny themes. There are so few of them.
     
    I'd like it if there was a fixed width option in the edit options. Kinda like the custom font thing.
     
    I really wanna see a Crimson and Gold Scizor theme.
