After further research... it seem that, based on our site's hit stats logged for the past 6-weeks, about 45% of our site's hits are in the 1280x - 1366x resolution width range (with 1280x800 being only about 9% of that 45%) with 1024x768 coming in second at 28% over-all. There are fewer than 7% of site hits in the listed ranges above and below those. So it seems that 1366x768 is the 'big winner'.
I'll create a 1360 wide sample page based on "jw48's" proposal. You may notice width changes on our non-forum pages - with lots of empty space. That's the proposed width that all pages may eventually be adjusted to.
A "Proposed New Home Page" preview link will be posted in this thread for further member feed-back & discussion after it's been created, uploaded and made basically functional.
