Your screen resolution?

We could put a detection script in, but I'd rather ask.

It's for something new we're for webmasters.

1152X864 Twice With DUal Head..


I really don't understand why people would use 1280x1024


This is a resolution that HAD to be put by mistake in the beginning... it's not the True Ratio of 4:3 ... so basically, all you guys see is distorted....


all other resolutions... 640X480, 800X600, 1152X864, 1600X1200

they're all 4:3 but that one hehe

i dont think its distorted.. there are more horizontal lines, but they are closer together.. the image isnt really distorted

and i really think my monitor was optimized for this resolution.. for any other resolution i have to resize the screen but for 1280x1024 it fits perfectly by default

it is...

try having any image in photoshop... if you don't keep the aspect ratio, it is distorted...


pure aspect ratio on computers is 4:3...

if you don't have 4:3, it is distorted ;)

Got 4 stations here,
1 set to 800x600
2 Set to 1024X768

My mongrel box, IE the dinosour 500Mhz at 640x480.

Tis always good to see how things look in several resolutions
Especially concerning testing

But now how about Gamma settings?

Peeps set to Adobe Gamma or no?

If ya set to Adobe Gamma one might notice that things look very different on say a Sony monitor at manufacture default.

What to do about discoloration... It can not be guranteed that what you see is what your users see

I don't know how accurate j a v a s c r i p t stats are for real, but I've noticed most surfers are still using 800x600. Not by much though.

I believe TV is a little different.. somewhere arround 560 × 420 depending on signal...


16:9 is widescreen...

im paranoid with the monitor resolution, i think 1280x960 is the most suitable.
