Size of message entry window
First off, I realize that this is apparently a function of vbulletin and not really restricted to MT per se.
Does anyone else find that the message entry window is entirely too small? The actual text box is 540 x 250. While I find this convenient when I'm logged in from my '286 Amstrad with its CGA display, on my 19" PC monitor this makes for a text entry box roughly the size of an index card, surrounded by gobs and gobs of wasted space. It's particularly trying when embedded images are involved.
I can't find anything in the vB3 documentation concerning this, but then I'm not really a guru on the subject- the last BBS I sysop'd was running under CNET on an Amiga 2000...
Seriously, is there any way to change this?

Just for the hell of it, i put my resolution down to 800x600 (a common resolution on older computers) and the text entry box is almost the whole width of the screen.

But realistically, let's have a show of hands- who here is running 800x600? For that matter, who is running 1024x768?
(sound of crickets chirping)
I'm just trying to figure out if this is something that can be configured, or if you're just locked into it by the design of the vBulletin software.

Well I'll be damned. It's been right there in front of me this whole time and I never noticed it. Yeah, wider would be nice, but that helps tremendously. Thank you, Scott.

They didn't fit on the screen due to the small size of the edit window.
