Hey there,
i'd like to suggest a small improvement to the forum's CSS. There are two tweaks that would make it a lot more widescreen-friendly.
1)
.wrapper {
width:100%;
max-width:990px; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Change this line to the line below
max-width:90%;
margin:0 auto;
position:relative
}
2)
#footer {
text-align:left;
background:#333;
color:#ebebec;
padding:40px; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Remove this line, add the two lines below
padding-top:40px;
padding-bottom:40px;
font-size:12px;
overflow-x:hidden;
overflow-y:hidden;
box-shadow:0 0 5px rgba(0,0,0,.15)
}
The second one just makes sure the footer is properly aligned, otherwise it looks weird. Screenshots attached.
Making use of wider screens would be great!

Possible, but i honestly wouldn't want to jump through all the hoops to get it into the Chrome Store just to change two lines of CSS. In Chrome you can actually use local overrides to achieve the same, without any extensions. Either approach will only improve the experience for those who know of its existence and choose to use it, while adjusting the template server-side would be beneficial for everybody :-)

Are you sure? https://baymard.com/blog/line-length-readability
All I'm saying is that the forum is used by loads of people with potentially widely differing client setups. Changing your client to offer a different rendering experience and then sharing it with others is safer than changing it for everybody and having to deal with the unforeseen consequences.
