Screen Resolution: What setting do webmasters use?

RawAlex · 2005-04-23, 03:00 PM

My editing system is a two screener (actually 3 if you count the video monitor) so on that one I am running 2560 X 1024 over to screens, and my main system here runs 1024 X 768. I could run higher resolution, but I find it just leads to me using bigger fonts and graphcis on pages... most of my other systems are 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600 depending on age and monitor size.

I think that it will soon be time to start accepting sites fitting into 1024 X 768 screens, as less and less people have the 800 X 600 as standard anymore.

RE: "as less and less people have the 800 X 600 as standard anymore" My stats don't show much of a drop off. Although most people have better monitors, the largest share seems to go to 800X600.
