You are definitely right about that.

The current header is 970x200, and on my laptop set to 1280x800 the header only makes it about 3/4 of the way across. I've also always considered it too tall for my taste, but perhaps others disagree. I just don't like a header that takes up nearly a third of my window's viewable area (considering the browser header and various toolbars, etc. that folks may have).
Good points. I hadn't even noticed this. I usually leave my browser window maximized unless I'm testing a fluid layout so I hadn't seen it. But yes, you're right. For the header to look right, it would have to be fluid I would think.

The header takes up about half of my screen now at 1680x1050.
