The site template is 700 pixels wide a similar size to the BBC news website. If your desktop resolution is 1024 x 768, then the site will only occupy 3/4 of your screen.
This is done to make the site compatable with 99% of computer monitors. If, for instance the template was set as a percentage of the window size, and the internet window was full screen, then the site would look very odd on different monitor resolutions.
My monitor for example is widescreen with a resolution of 1440 x 900 and the fishy site would be unusable to me if the template was say 90% - 100% of the window size. I have to use a half screen window for this message board, because in full screen the lines of text are too long, making me lose track.
I hope thats not too techy.
As it is, the site looks more professional and and easier to navigate. in my opinion.
