Yeah. That's way too big. Will force us to scroll down on each page.

I like that font you used though. What is it?

The problem I see with the line of separation between the text and the picture is that when you put it as a header on the top of the page it will blend less with the background because of it, and it will conflict with the dimensions of the board itself. You see what I mean? Maybe if there was some shading on each side... hm.

I think the lettering might go better beside the picture rather than above it, in the interest of not making people scroll down so much.

What kind of functionalities?
HTML buttons basically do not work.

ProBlack skin seems to be having forum display problems. Can anybody confirm/deny this?

Looks good to me, using Chrome on Win 7. Will check other browsers and operating systems shortly.

No issues in Chrome/WinXP
The DUNGEON MASTERS GUIDE City of Brass cover is good and bad at the same time. While its very representational of a high level adventure, it sends a clear message to the dumb: Satan is going to cornhole Miss USA with a big red member and theres nothing science or the military can do about it. - Gene Weigel

Not sure if it's possible, but an iPhone app for this board would be very cool.
