as mentioned right after giving the example, that's the way some of the themes unfortunately work, but that's due to the technology they use (they are displaying background images and the like, which are pre-generated for that exact resolution, possibly a dynamic scaling won't look right in those cases). On the other hand, I'm completely with you, they should behave better, but they are not my skins, nor do I particularly use them, I was only trying to help the users a bit, which add such skins without touching any code... >> just because there still are plugins having to use skins which are >> resolution-dependent, so those names aren't at all that uncommonly long >> like your example, yet they try to carry some little useful information. >> And still, one of them is already violating the limit (if we do not >> consider the file extension).

Version 2.1.x can pick up such changes again... That's fair enough and also ok with me, thanks.
