It probably would. It's mostly a difference in style. I generally
prefer to set my sizes to 570 x 320 as that's the same aspect ratio
as HDTV and movie screens (16x9). And I think Markus prefers 580 x
350 to get a little more real estate. We'll work it out and agree on
one set of numbers. Thanks for picking this up.
