I seriously doubt anyone trying to use PostgreSQL is stuck at 800x600. 1024x768 is probably good enough. It does fix in 1024x768 btw :) The only part that I don't like is the big old elephant. Although I think it is a nice touch, I think it takes to much away from the info being presented. Sincerely, Joshua D. Drake > > > > Gavin M.
