Dear Administrators,

Please do not forget to add a picture of the newest member of Celtic Woman to our forums header. We must not leave her out.
We can't let her feel forgotten.

Gratefully,

- Guardian of the Rose

That question was asked several weeks ago, and Lindsey answered it.  "As soon as I find a picture with a high enough resolution that I think will fit in well."

Sorry. I wasn't aware of that. Would the Lamb Chop picture work?

No. Part of the problem is that the forum isn't a fixed width. It's fluid based on the size of your monitor. That's why if you resize your browser window the forum itself resizes to fit. However, there is a minimum width which limits how small the forum can get. Since the search and the login forms are up in the header along with the picture of the girls I have to be very careful about making sure they don't touch or overlap thus ruining the effect and causing another problem because the CW image also acts as a link to the home page. And, at the end of the day, it's my work and I have to be happy with it. Especially since I stare at it all the time. There are very few pictures of Lisa L out there from CW Ltd. and I try to be VERY careful and only use pictures from the company because they've told us in the past they have no problems with us using them. That is an extremely limiting proposition for me. I highly doubt that Lisa L feels forgotten. She's got her own set of boards and her own entry in the FAQ, the only thing missing are the pictures. I am aware of the lack, and I am honestly doing my best to keep an eye out for something that will work.

Would it make sense to lesson the height of the picture or greaten the width so another girl could fit?

No, for two reasons, 1) I like how it is now. It's big enough that even on a high def monitor the girls faces are clear. Shrink it any and you'll run into problems because it would have to be higher resolution which would, in all likelihood, increase the load time and the forum is so graphics heavy already that I'm constantly worried about load time. 2) Not everyone's monitor is the same size. While what should be web standards size has changed, there are still people using 800x600 screen resolutions. That's why a lot of pages use variable width in their programing, so that the page renders correctly no matter what browser is being used.
