silly question maybe

[rowhard]

I wonder if other have this issue and don't have the answer. Some threads I open here on the VX info page, I have to use the radio button at the bottom to scroll over to the right to see the whole thread. How come? That is the question, thank you

[Ldub]

They usually contain higher resolution pics(larger), or someone has posted a group of pics horizontally...both annoying as hell.:rolleyesg

[taylorRichie]

Or some of you guys have low resolution monitors ;) More annoying than hell for a web designer

It's gotta be rough for you "webgods" to tolerate the ignorant, under-equipped, rabble that make up the majority of people that will ever see your work...:rolleyesg

I feel your pain...:smilewink

[etlsport]

haha like me!! my resolution is only 800x600.. but thats because i use a 32" monitor from about 12 feet away

[nfpgasmask]

Whever I post images on line, I always size them vertically to 600 pixels wide. The annoying problem of scrolling horizontally will never be my fault! :)

I think in general, 1024x768 is pretty much the standard resolution for computers out there today. As a web designer, I usually build my sites to look good at that resoultion or higher, but still be viewable at 800x600. I generally disregard people who view at 640x480.

Yep, that's what mine is

[twistedsymphony]

1024x768 is the standard resolution for a 17" monitor

you should be running 1280x1024 if you've got a 19" monitor

Widescreen monitors are a little different.

I do a lot of we development myself and I always design the pages to work with 1024x768 in full screen, depending on the site I'll get it to work with 800x600 screens as well.

Personally I use 19" screens but I never maximize my browser so my effective "screen size" is always smaller than my actual screen.

:D

And the majority of people are Finally using Firefox, or better browsers. Which if you have will automatically scale the graphics to fit correctly within your wee little monitor.

Even a cheap walmart computer $300 has higher res than 1024X768. I have a macbook laptop 13.3" display and it's 1280X800...

DUDE, and I am being nice since I don't want to be kicked off, I have been using foxfire since it came out. I am using a ACER 21 inch, now piss off. You related to Costie by chance

[taylorRichie]

me :confused: ???

I'm totally playing... I thought we were all on being facetious and silly. I honestly meant no offense at all... Didn't have the opportunity to meet you in Moab, but those who did I'm sure can attest that I'm a bit of a smart mmmhmmm but I also can roll with the punches. :D

Sorry to offend you man, but you gotta relax.

[Thmstec]

Man I've been addicted to high resolution for about 5 years, anything 1400x900 and less feels so cramped(like the macbook pro I'm on right now) Preferably I like to be on something 3200x1200 (two 19inch crts :bwgy:). Loved the screen real estate. But I'm dealing with less now that I'm a poor college kid with no room for those monsters on my desk.

But I know I'm the exception, no one over 20 hasn't squinted looking at my more pixel dense set-ups over the years :rolleyes:

I think Richie was takin' a little swipe at me more than you Rowhard, I did meet him in Moab & he's a a certifiable smart az...just like me...:smilewink
After reading all the posts, I can see that I probably have the smallest LCD monitor in the world @ 15"...:sighwgray, so I guess I'll have to live on somehow, with a perpetual case of "monitor envy"...:rolleyesg

Bro, where did that come from? I don't think Richie was talking down to anyone here???

Did I miss something?

:confused: Bart

[nfpgasmask]

Here is my home setup. I am thinking of adding an additional 19" on the left, to get that nice Matrix looking setup, even though I don't really need it.

I believe the correct terminology is "Screenus Envy" ;) And from now on I'll be sizing my pix to 640X480... :)

But with full versions in the gallery for those who'd like a more detailed look.

Sorry for the drama :D and for the record, all shots were meant to be at Dub :eek:

Someone who has a plus sized underwear, and press on nails collection deserves a little ribbing.
