I cannot see half the page because my browser width is 1024px

Should people really be expected to horizontally scroll a dozen times to read a page.

This site seems to be the perfect example I was looking for during yesterday's discussion on the ever-increasing size of users' screens.

I know you are a photography site, and you want your photos to be big & beautiful -- but this is not necessary.

Oh, and one the subject of TOS; I believe a legal document, is a legal document, is a legal document -- trying to "paint over" your terms with "friendly" prose isn't helping the user and is also unnecessary...

Same here. I usually don't come back to sites that do this. Plus, I find it ironic that a site called "500px" requires me to scroll horizontally on a 1024px browser window. =)
