It ideally should work on PDA and also work on non-full screen browser windows.

haha, So f*ing funny. "It should work for people with PDAs....". So what about people WITHOUT Computers? What about the millions starving in Africa. What about the millions suffering in war torn areas? Will your layout work for them too?
Mine is the layout that's used by most of the forums on teh internet, and some of them have even narrower text area. That is, the forum itself doesn't occupy the entire space, and have links or other information on either sides.
My layout will work on PDAs, though it may not be as ideal on a PDA. But then again, that's not the f*ing aim of a forum. If a person is using a PDA, then he must be ready for compromises, and we cannot cater to every single whim of every single individual.

The fact you feel your layout format is better is great, but that's just your opinion, one I happen to disagree with.

Nope. It is not "FEEL". i gave u the explanation. I don't "FEEL" anything. i have always tried to find the actual process behind why we find something beautiful. And i explained teh reason very clearly. The key idea is: LEFT MARGIN. That's a must, and that creates a better feeling.
Secondly, i don't use my forum. i don't use graphical stuff at all. i have tightly integrated it with a mailing list, and i have seldom visited my forums. i am only interested in how others will perceive it.
Anyway, as i said, arguing with u is pointless. You are simply inventing specious excuses to justify ur choice of bad design. (work for people with PDAs, starving people, people with AIDS, and what not). Just take care of the majority situations. You shouldn't ruin the majority situtation by being obsessed about a 100 people. That's a very bad way of thinking.
OK, at least advertise this at the beginning. FUDforum: Forum for people with PDAs ONLY.
