Wide post.

Anyone else notice alot of wide post that require left and right scrolling lately?

Normally it is because of images contained in that thread/post. Because they can't be wrapped (broken in other words) like text can they cause the forum to become wider and therefore require scrolling.

or very long links.

Yeah I knew images were bad about that. I went back and checked one or two of them, it was links, just never considered it I guess.

what I usually do when setting up a link so that the page is clean and no
long and strange looking link is:

--> (url=www.mylink.com/bla/bla/bla)ShortLink(/url)

Then, if person really needs to see the WHOLE link, he/she only needs to
just look down toward the bottom of his/her browser and see the actual
link no harm done.. best of both worlds.

Replace these..
* (
* )
with "[" and "]" respectively

I maybe will fix so phpbb cuts the links automatically if they are too long.
