Hi DG

As Decomposed pointed out, a necessity is to have a newer web browser. I do not kno what you are using so I need you to tell us if you would.

A second thing that could possibly be casing this stretch is the size of the font you are viewing with. Is your screen enlarged perhaps?

When you look at someones messgae that is too wide try doing this.

Hold down the Ctrl key with your left hand and with your right roll the button on your Mouse and see if the size of things changes. The lettering should change also. IF THAT brings down the post size and you can read everything else, it is a simple solution.

The other one is what Decomposed suggested.

Maybe use or try try Firefox?

Very fast. click this link:
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/windows/

click on download now. It will download and then install it. You should like it.. See if that works for you. CHROME is another browser but I prefer Firefox and I use OPERA MOST of the time.

Keep us posted if you try either DG. We will walk you through it if you need any help...

Here is link for Chrome:

DG:

Re: "Why do so many posts end up being too wide to fit on the page? People posting should make them smaller. I do not like having to keep moving back and forth."
I can think of two reasons. First, a post with very wide images or very long URLs won't get wrapped to fit the screen. That's the fault of the poster. Both images and URLs can be resized to be smaller.

The second reason is that you may be using an obsolete browser (most likely Internet Explorer.) If that's the case, the problem is on your end. I suspect this to be the case since I haven't noticed many posts lately with the first problem.

Talk to Angie. She can walk you through the complex and highly technical process of upgrading to a modern browser.

On a different subject... are you enjoying your new e-mail account?
