Quirky title, I know, bare with me, please. lol
Luv'ing MP, can't put it anymore simple than that. I've only been a user of 1.20 Beta. I am posting this here because it might actually be more of a general finding than specific to the WS & 4:3 (Default Wide & Default) skin that comes with 1.20 Beta.
I have a STD CRT TV, pc is dual purpose, Nvidia dualview, I output 1024x768 to the TV.
The Default Wide skin renders better (text and images included) than the Default. It appears to have no problems scaling itself to the 4:3 aspect ratio of my STD TV. See the screen captures below and you can at least see the size difference. On my CRT TV, size matters, I've always used 1024x768 but have toyed with 800x600 pre-MP to try and more closely match the default spec's for my CRT TV. In the end, everything looks better at 1024x768.
So I'm wondering, is this common, how default wide skins render better on a 4:3 screen?
Thank you.
