I had two columns (with the ability to turn off the right one)

My members said they wanted more space - especially when using PDA's etc....

They enjoyed the shoutbox - so did not turn off the right menu

I then move all boxes to the left - they say they are right handed and like the shoutbox on the right.

So I move them all to the right....

Still they are not happy....

Oh well....

Answers on a postcard....

of course it would be nice for people to be able to move the items where they like smile (but making some compulsory)

that is not really the answer - choice is what people like - if they dislike the shoutbox they should have the option for it not to be displayed for example. Some people are left handed and like their screen different to others.

Tell me about it. We've had more than a few discussions over the desired layout of the board on our site between Mods and Admins.

Unless ultimately the end user has control of the layout then you're just not going to please everyone. Not that you should give that control to the user though as some Web Masters want their site to look a specific way whether or not a few people like or not.

If this come about then compulsory islands should be listed
as i may have a sponsor list or google adds?

Would be nice, to let them decide which side at the
least.

I guess this one will never reach priority any time soon.

If we could get it on Gizmo's list there could be hope?

I guess i just dont know how difficult it would be
to re-arange the code, i think it may be a big big job.

you'd have to allow islands to be put on both sidebars, then you could make a genaric layout with the things the same on both, then disable one by default and allow users to deselect one of them...
