Desginers: How wide do you make your pages in pixels? - GoFuckYourself.com

11-25-2006, 12:16 PM

Do you do like 800 px? 900px?
I'm making a page thats 900px and it all fits at 1024x768 resolution but scrolls over in lower resolution.
whats standard?

ffmihai · 11-25-2006, 12:18 PM

800x600 is still the king

Jace · 11-25-2006, 12:23 PM

800px wide

Ace_luffy · 11-25-2006, 12:41 PM

800 px wide...

Deej · 11-25-2006, 12:42 PM

no more than 800...under is ok for galleries

Jakke PNG · 11-25-2006, 12:47 PM

780 max.

Harry Red · 11-25-2006, 12:53 PM

I do my new web shop with 900 px wide. Mosr of AWM has good monitors, and I can put in the screen more girls and infos for them.

Outlinezero_yourmofoLOLO · 11-25-2006, 12:56 PM

below 800px for me.

I use 777

Twisted Dave · 11-25-2006, 06:35 PM

MOST of my clients want 1024 as the standard... and in all honesty, I don't understand people saying 800 is king....

fact is, on stats I have, 1024 is the most popular overall.... 800 definitely below. PC's even from 3 - 4 years ago, were coming with 1024 as standard. And these days, 1280 is pretty standard. So to pander to 800 ... well, I don't get it ...

Ah well... I do what the client wants ...

If they want 800, fine ... if they want 900, fine ...

I prefer 100%

Smart clients who keep an eye on making as much as they can from the surfers on the net won't turn away the 15%-25% that still have small monitors.. or.. oh here's a thought.. laptops... Seriously... between alienating those with 800x monitors and those on dial-up, it's no wonder so many porn companies fail.

rounders · 11-25-2006, 06:50 PM

i like 800x600

AJHall · 11-25-2006, 06:50 PM

I still design for 800 by default unless the client asks for 1024.

rounders · 11-25-2006, 06:51 PM

TGPturnkeys · 11-26-2006, 01:07 AM

usually I start new project with this settings: width - 770 and height - 800

Matt 26z · 11-26-2006, 01:47 AM

All vital components of the site should be in the first 800 if it's a static layout.

smack · 11-26-2006, 02:12 AM

i always try to keep mine at no more than 750 - 790.

depends on the page though. although i rarely if ever go above 800. unfortunately 800x600 is still the lowest common demoninator.

Paysighting · 11-26-2006, 02:22 AM

Below 800px.

www.nhl.com is designed at 1000px wide.

Seems to work for them.

bl4h · 11-26-2006, 05:41 AM

i try to keep them fluid/adjustable

Some people just like bulky looking 800x600. Its not all about old technology

Twisted Dave · 11-26-2006, 05:41 AM

NHL is a prime example.

I think worrying about the 15% is too much of a worry ... let's face it ... if they're using 15%, they're probably on a work PC or whatever.... :P

I always start a design at 750 wide and use this for everything so I know exactly where the site sits on any resolution.

Magix · 11-26-2006, 06:22 AM

800 px wide, no more

lucas131 · 11-26-2006, 06:40 AM

780 to be safe

770 accomodates everyone.

I thought laptops had HIGHER resolutions than desktops?
I have like 3-4 years old dell and it has 1400x1050 resolution..and I bought my mom a cheap acer laptop, and even that has 1280x1024 or something..

Gamiseta · 11-26-2006, 06:50 AM

what it has and what people are likely to use are 2 different things ...

if you have a 14" monitor, the text would be pretty small at 1400 x 1050 ...

plus, lots of people don't even know what resolution is, or how to change it, so they leave it on what it comes with ... 800x600 or 1024x768

Oracle Porn · 11-26-2006, 07:07 AM

the days of 800x600 are passing by quickly....i mostly design 800x600 but i dont afraid to use 1024x768 when needed....its fucking 2006 people! surfers got high speed connections and high resolution lcd monitors...

15% is a bit of a stretch - more like 10%. My sites are still made to fit in 800*600, but I'm going to start using more real estate soon.

From Google Analytics:

1024x768 51.18%
1280x1024 13.49%
800x600 9.90%
1280x800 8.28%
1152x864 3.87%
1440x900 2.52%
1680x1050 1.98%

Mine came with its max resolution set out of the box (1440x960) (a Mac) and I've loved that resolution. It was only last week that a colleague commented on how small the text was and that she had difficulty reading it. I've never found it small at all - so I looked at her 1200 res monitor (or thereabouts) and couldn't believe how BIG the text was. It was like she was blind or something!!

Basic_man · 11-26-2006, 09:56 AM

The standard for 800x600 resolution is 760px wide.

780 is ok too ;)

BUT 960px wide is rule now, all 780x and less is sucks now

Zuzana Designs · 11-26-2006, 10:17 AM

I ask the client as some have bigger thumb sizes and need that.. and freesites I never go over 760 so there is no chance to scroll .. I test them all in several different browsers and resolutions to make sure it works ..

uno · 11-26-2006, 10:24 AM

I still do 800x600 in general, unless its something i really care about personally and it looks good on higher res.

DjSap · 11-26-2006, 10:27 AM

I use 770...it really depends on your crows...for mainstream there is a big spread between tech sites that can go above it and normal folks site that have to stay under 780...

Babaganoosh · 11-26-2006, 10:27 AM

My stats show 1024x768 is the most popular. 800x600 is in third behind 1280x1024
