Message of the Day (server join message)
When you join the server the motd is displayed by rendering a webpage, using the version of ie on your system
I had tested it using ie6 cos if you dont use ie but use firefox, that's most likely the ie sitting on your box, but I just tested it with ie7 and it was scaled and ugly..fixed now, but on my box there's plenty of space left on the blackboard
..so I want to get the motd looking best at the resolutions most used by the players, using the available space. I was going off the results of the steam survey, but tf2 is a bit schpankier than cs1.6 for example...
so to make a long story boring, what res do you game at?

1440*900
Though having something that makes the majority of people happy whilst the people with a four pixel screen can't see it right is kindof discrimination imo. (Same reasons most websites aren't wider than 1000 pixels, or use % values)
Can you use % values in the CSS for the MOTD? (or is it a picture?)
If you already have then fine, I haven't seen the new motd yet!
