When using the standard board in Game Courier, people with 15'' screens
have to rectify it all the time because the nether part of the board is out
of view. This is somewhat unattractive. Isn't it possible to rearrange the
display in some way so that one needn't scroll the page every time?

Hey, Mats, you can reduce the size of the boards yourself with the bottom
row of 'buttons' on the game courier game page. Next to the board, under
the player names and move boxes, there are 2 boxes, 'render as' and
'scale'. Change 'render as' from 'table' to png or gif, and change
the scale to 80. The 'table' board rendering is not scalable, but the
others are. A little practice and you will get even the largest boards
onscreen - I have a 15x30 game going currently. Joe

Aha, but then there are many presets that need to be rescaled. Anyway, I
wonder whether the blue buttons could be made smaller, instead, and the
heading needn't use those big characters. The board size is good, it's
just that it doesn't fit.

For instance, there is a big empty area above the heading. Why can't the
heading be moved up in this area instead? In this way the whole playing
board can be moved up, so one needn't scroll the page repeatedly.
