Banner Sizes, Is bigger better

I was talking to sir moby about banners the other day and he said that 468 by 80 was the standard when screen resultions were 640 wide or 800 wide.

Now that most people are using much higher resultions the 468 by 80 banners seem very tiny

I think hes right so I made up a few bigger banners for a sponsor and they seem to pull very well

do you think bigger banners make your site less bookmarkable to a surfer
