I think most people have 1024x768 in general. Guys who use the PC for their work (webmasters, programmers, writers...) or PC freaks like gamers use a bigger resolution like 1280x1024 or more...

Yes I think so too, but most webdesigners (at least low budget designers) do his portfolios for webmasters from forums like this one... so I think would be really helpful.

I think I will go with 1024 for my next site.

I'm curious though, what resolution would you build your website at if you were targeting a monitor of 1280x1024 or 1440x900 ?

I always used to do it at 800x600, now I think its time to change... so I will use 1024x768.

If you are completelly sure your surfers use that resolution then its ok, but keep in mind it will be a pain for the rest of surfers... I wouldnt use more than 1024x768 so you keep all your audience.

I love 800x600. Anything higher strains the eyes, especially for those who look at a computer screen 10 hours a day.

The questions is about to design a site for higher resolution than 800x600, this was the stardard until now... so I think the next step is going to 1024. I never would design higher than this, at least for now.

Yes good point, but you always have to set a minimun, if not things could looks missplaced. I preffer fixed width anyway.

Agree completely. My site is currently set to max out at 800 wide, but my redo will be wider. It just looks odd on bigger screens as it is now.

Check these stats out. Gives you all kind of info on common display resolution, and color depth.
54% of internet users have 1024.

Are you worried about people who don't surf with their browsers fullscreen? Personally, I'll leave a site if it: 1. Pops fullscreen, or 2. Necessitates me having to have my browser opened full screen.
