Hi. The birthday pets are yet another royal pain litter. :'(

This is what I was thinking, glad you bumped this so I can add my support again.

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY because of the lovely malk dragon and, soon, the lovely eastern dragon </3

I'm pretty sure most computer mice only have a scroll wheel for scrolling up and down and nothing for going left and right. Most webpages also don't make you go left and right. I don't know which came first in this feedback loop (chicken or egg?) but either way... I don't wanna go left and right :'D

[Shian]

What I don't get is why is everything else messed up?
The dog, chicken, zebra etc all needs to be scrolled to the right when there's literally only three stages.
They should all fit but they don't. See the tiny bit of checkmark on the right? Yup. Gotta scroll for everything that has more than two stages.

I'd gather it's because each box in a column is made the same size as the biggest one, but.. yeah. There are far more efficient ways for it to be laid out.

[nickjr]

Yeah, it's because each litter is in a table, according to the HTML. All table cells in any column are the same width, and all table cells in any row are the same height. So the table cells stretch to be no shorter than the tallest image in the row and no narrower than the widest image in the column. And the images are displayed in full, no resizing.

The third column has the adult Tess Dragon. :'D

Speaking of how it's laid out gave me this idea... I wonder if it would be better to move this thing:

"By Simon
You own this pet
Add to wishlist"

into the same cell as the adult image+age and just under the age, instead of having it in its own cell? This could also maybe clear up some confusion for the pets with funky growth charts, like the August 2010 time-of-day horses.

Downside is that it'll make pages longer vertically, but I'll take vertical lengthening over horizontal lengthening

[Shian]

Or maybe putting it in front of the pet instead? Then the pet can have as many outcomes as it wants!
...puzzle horses will be an issue but it'll help with the rainbow horse and other cascades. I'm still preferential to the original condensed archive ideas but it's another easy fix idea.

Perhaps make a poll to see what votes trickle in? =)
