I read this today:
The web likes to grow downward, and setting fixed heights is an enemy to that natural movement.
If the content becomes too much for the space, we’re in Bad Design territory.
YES!
Please, oh, please, oh, please, (web) designers, start remembering this when designing for the web. You’re not designing for a particular size. You’re designing for all the sizes!
I’d even think this way in terms of widths and aspect ratios. You’re not designing for a particular size. You’re designing for all the sizes!
