Ok, it annoys me JUST enough that I'm going to attempt a quick hackjob/fix to Confluence so that it doesn't stretch certain artwork on a 4:3 display.
This will most likely lead into me modifying a few other items (i.e. clock being unreadable, placement of certain items, etc) after the squishing is completed but...one thing first. (And, honestly, I'm most comfortable with those modifications).
So, the skin looks relatively fine @ 4:3, however certain graphics (read: Movie posters) are squished horizontally a bit. I'd like to force them to retain the original aspect ratio - without redoing the entire skin. Basically, hack in the 4:3 resolution at 720p resolution settings (if that makes sense).
I'm a bit confused where to look for this, if there's some 'global' setting I can change and save the hassle of altering all views, etc.
In short:
I understand the concept behind resizing/moving everything. Is there a way I can accomplish this aside from having to resize/move everything and defining the entire skin over to standard def resolutions?
