today while testing a site out to make sure it looked respectable in all screen res (go percentages) i changed my screen res to 800 x 600..i wonder how those people make it..i then chagned it to 1280 by 1024..and holy hell!!! tooooo much room...thought i'd never find anything..soo much space..either way.what screen res do you run in? i normally roll with 1024 x 768.
hmmm... ::rubs at his chin thoughtfully..:: touche... either way, I see no pixesl..well..some..maybe..could be my eyes imagining things now..dots everywhere!!!
and it just me or does I.E. handle the percentage game better? :: mad that IE and firefox do not display CSS the same.... :: oh well..most of my users will be beginning users and will only be using I.E. more than likely..if they're using something else..well.i'm screwed..

Thankfully, I think we've passed the point where 800x600 is the majority, but its not quite such a small minority we can ignore them yet. Maybe in another year.

I run at 1280x1024. I use a 21" CRT monitor, and I often change my resolution and font size to help improve visibility on various sites. I have visual deficiencies, and often use assistive viewing technologies. I won't go above 1280 until I get a bigger monitor. I have a second, but thats running my linux box.
I go with the biggest I can get. My laptop and server are max 1024x768. I hardly use the server monitor, though. My comp I use most of the time is max 1280x1024. All are LCDs.

I use 1024x768 WinXp /I.E/FF
Could I get anyone to check out http://villificnews.info and see what is displays as if running
something other then what I just mentioned?
As a (sadly but nicely).. newbie php dev guy..... i have no way to test my stuff on Mac/Linux based stuff
and same goes for security type stuff... so any help..... even if just resolution display.... helps
me greatly.
btw.... anyone who runs 800x600 should be killed anyways, same goes for WIN98..
Can't please everyone, So I at least try to please 1024x768 I.E./FF since I can test that
myself
