After I set up my website w/Site Builder and view it on line, its fuzzy, small and doesn't take up the entire screen like other sites. Why?

  1. Not sure what you mean by "fuzzy" or "small" -- a link to your site would help -- but Yahoo! SiteBuilder does not support what you are asking about: "make the webpage fit the entire screen".  It only allows you to generate fixed-width pages.


  2. I don't know what's causing it to be fuzzy and small, but SiteBuilder pages do not fill the internet screen.  The window--or horizontal scroll bar--will expand on so far, and will do so only if your content exceeds the width of the original SiteBuilder screen.

    You can make your pages look centered by expanding the horizontal scroll bar as far as possible and then centering the page so that it looks balanced on the internet window.  You can do this by snapping down the grid and using the preview application so that you can see if your page is centered before you publish.

    To show the grid, go to Arrange, click on Snap to Grid, click on Show grid, and voila.  This is what I do, and I have it centered so that it looks neat on my AOL browser screen.  It is not centered when I view my site on Internet Explorer.  Plus, you have to keep in mind that some people have bigger or smaller, plasma or LCD

    monitors, so your site is not going to look centered on every one screen.

    You can also center your content horizontally and vertically.  Click on a text block, image, etc.  Click on Format, click on Center Horizontally.  However, I WOULD NOT USE THIS APPLICATION BECAUSE ONE THE ITEM IS CENTERED IT LOCKS AND YOU CANNOT MOVE IT OR DISENGAGE THE APPLICATION, that I know of.
