Thank you for making these suggestions, and so clearly too. I think it's something a lot of people (myself included) may have at some point been annoyed by, however I for one never thought of making a post about it. Thanks again
You're welcome, but there's no need to thank me actually.
Surely PageTitle sequence can be as moveable as the portable software discussed at TPFC Forum ? Or at least this is my layperson's understanding (or misunderstanding).

Thanks for your research on this matter. It is consistent with what my earlier findings, which is the modification of 2 core PHP files "viewtopic.php" and "viewforum.php".
However, seeing that others have gone down the same route, and as you mentioned with no upgrade compatibility issues reported, I have made the necessary code changes.

Thanks Andrew ! As of the 1st (lucky) Friday the 13th of 2017 (13 Jan 2017), TPFC is fully tab & history friendly now.
How about increasing max dimension of entries' screenshots from current 1024x768 to 1366x768 or even 1920x1080? No need to increase current max size (1MB), just dimension.
1024x768 seems outdated
I think one thing to keep in mind is that the area for screenshots is smaller than 1080p on the actual site. I'm always fond on maintaining legibility in screenshots if they'll be viewed at smaller widths more often that not.
Eg: at fullscreen on a 1440p monitor (2560px wide) the area for the screenshot on the site when viewed in the entry itself is only 1121px wide (accounting for padding). Anything higher will be scaled down. At 1500px wide (eg: a windowed browser on a 1080p or higher monitor) and the area becomes only 828px wide, more than 2x smaller than a full 1080p screenshot.
I don't think this necessitates making the flexible width entry elements on the site wider but rather is just something to be mindful of when choosing screenshots imo (particularly if one is wanting to draw attention to the UI of a program).

It may not represent the majority of our users, but I definitely want to maintain readability for mobile devices as well. I occasionally check the site on my phone and very large images are not helpful there.
While I agree with billon that the 1024x768 size limit is outdated, and certainly one or two graphics programs I've tested have pushed for more room. However, at least for my own entries, I'll try to maintain smaller screenshots and (where possible) use slideshow-style animations to show off multiple features.
