Latest Comments - Locking the Width?
 

So this has only happened a few times that I recall, but it's happened again, so I'm wondering if it can be fixed: the front page has the various sections, along with "Latest Comments to Pictures" on the right. Which is normally fine, but then someone goes and posts an inane thing line "wow.............................................. ..............." or "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!" or whatever. And in order to not break the word across multiple lines, it stretches out the width of that box to take up half the screen, scrambling the rest of the front page into a mess.

Is there a way to lock the width of that section so that it simply does either exclude showing those comments, cut them off halfway (on the front page - you can see them normally on the actual picture) or break them across multiple lines?

Alternatively can we get a more customisable frontpage where I could, for instance, just tell it not to show me the comments?
