With any design you are going to get white space... The old design had plenty of it...

The header that you so mercilesly disect is only 64 pixels high (4 text lines) in most messages you'll save those 4 lines by not having 200+ pixel side bar.

I am not going to post screenshots but rather URLs so bare with me...

Notice all the white space on the left hand side that strenches for @ least 600 pixels. Or perphaps this:

Nearly every message wastes 200 pixels due to the sidebar that you appear to like.

Infact I had to resize my browser window by about 50 pixels in order to be able to read the forum without having the resort to vertical scrolling.

Bottom line is that no matter was design you have you are going to have white space... There is nothing wrong with it, if anything it makes the output less cluttered. In most of the messages you WILL be able to see more messages per screen that you could before and that what matters.

There are many people to integrate FUDforum into their designs and cannot use full screen width due to use menu/banner bars on both side that take up to 300-350 pixels of the screen. Another 200 pixels of 'user info' would make their sites unreadable on anything other then 1024*768+ under the old design.
