Summary:Userpics go off left side of page
Original Request:
Ever since the latest update, I've had times when the userpic selection box comes up and I can't see the leftmost column because they're off the left of the page, even when I'm scrolled as far to the left as I can.

This happens when the thread's so long that when I click reply I get a horizontal scrollbar, but not so long I've had to expand anything. I've tried it in Firefox 8 and Chrome in Windows 7 and Firefox 13 on Ubuntu, all with the same results.

I've put screenshots from each browser in my scrapbook, so you can see what I mean:
Firefox 8: http://splendid-roman.livejournal.com/pics/catalog/342/3923
Chrome: http://splendid-roman.livejournal.com/pics/catalog/342/3791
Diagnostics: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:8.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0.1

It happens at this point of this thread (and possible earlier in the thread and definitely later: http://first-in-time.livejournal.com/17819.html?thread=1250203#t1250203

Having played about to find a comment thread to show you, it seems like once the thread's gone so far over the right that the horizontal scroll bar shows up, the userpic selection window starts on the left, rather than the right. Which is fine when it's gone further over because there's enough space to scroll left and see all the userpics, but not at the point of that thread linked above (at least on my netbook with a 1024x768 resolution, it may be different on your computer depending on the size of your browser screen).

Thank you for the additional information. I am able to reproduce the problem by setting my resolution low enough to get a horizontal scrollbar. This has been reported to LiveJournal developers, who will investigate the problem and take the appropriate actions to resolve it. You may wish to watch the lj_releases community [http://lj_releases.livejournal.com/profile], where a fix will be announced once it has been implemented.
