I guess I'm used to seeing forms with descriptions on the left and inputs on the right, both on paper and on the web, but I accept those are usually text fields not checkboxes. > That always looks weird.

Three main reasons. 1 I'm used to using pixels and find them predictable and consistent. 2 I noticed most web-pages these days have a central column of about 900-1000 pixels, in the centre of the window, so that was the first setting I included. 3 Then I made everything else in pixels for consistency, and for reason 1. But I'm open to suggestions. How do you prefer to think of sizes when formatting various page elements? Thanks for your feedback.
