Hi,

I'm not a theme developer still curious to know if there is any specific reason to keep the width of the SnowFlat theme (.qa-body-wrapper) to "1024px"? Changing this to 100% makes the display much better on my laptop. I suppose 90% width might be good for all situations. Or is there something I'm missing?
Q2A version: 1.7.4

I think the reason is to keep the text flow better. Actually having wider width means longer text lines and that would look awkward... that's why fixed width of text is necessary have more reader oriented website...
But this is only a guess as this was asked sometime back and I read this reason as one of the answers.

Thanks. Might be true for question pages but not for question lists and other pages like Home page. If there is no other reason I guess I can change this.

Well I you can surely do that. But I would personally like to have menu on the left as all social media websites have. That way complete screen is filled and the design also doesn't turn bad.

yes, I guess a left sidebar makes sense, it can then display "template" specific stuffs on it--like question specific or question list specific-- and say right sidebar can be fixed across all templates. I'm trying to make a custom home page and came across this issue. Will see how this turns out.. Thanks :)
