i have a selfish question, then...

if you surf to:
http://algonquinstudios.com/

are the content pages too liquid?  there's a lot of padding on both sides of the
content, but it all (except for the case studies) scales down to sub-600px
pretty well...  but do you personally find that harder to use?

mostly i'm curious to a) hear how my site performs and b) get a better idea of
your perspective based on something i know...

yeah, there are three people (out of 20) at work who surf full-screen... i can't
figure it out... and they don't understand my 640 windows, either...
