Fixed width of 1024 pixels vs 100% width

[wacnstac]

If I take my browser window down to 1024 pixels wide the photopost and ppclassifieds look fine, but if I go into admin options and change the width to be a fixed width of 1024, lots of things look jacked up. Any ideas?

do you have any examples?

Really hard to say without seeing an issue.

Well here's an example of a photopost gallery which I want to resize to a static 1024 wide. I can resize my browser window to 1024 pixels wide while I have it set to 100% in the admin options and things work fine, but if I try to statically size it to 1024 in the admin control panel things look really messed up.

I dont see any example but you only want to set it to a fixed width in admin options if you do not use a sidebar. If you run a sidebar it can mess up the widths.
