So I guess I will wait to upload my redesign to digitaldivasonline until 2012 or so.

How many are still in 800x600?

cyber_ninja · 09-28-2009, 10:48 PM

does that surprise you?

SleazyDream · 09-28-2009, 11:27 PM

i'm still in 1024X768 and I prefer it

should I be viewing in something else? If I choose a higher resolution the text gets WAY smaller and I hate that - the VAST majority of sites view perfectly fine in 1024x768.

i like it easy to read

lots of people are on laptops these days... and having higher screen resolutions makes it almost impossible to read anything... not to mention all the people who are using their cellphones to browse the internet (what is their screen resolutions?)...

That looks about right: http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_display.asp

4% on 800 x 600 or lower.

me too - but we are becoming a minority. i can't believe people enjoy the small text at higher resolution sizes on 19 and 21 inch monitor. My monitor is 21" and I don't want a bigger monitor and anything higher than 1024 and the text is too tiny. I don't think it's an age thing, I can read the small text fine but just prefer it bigger. Website look small and insignifican to me a higher resolution to me as well.

i'm sure if i set it to a higher resolution for a week I'd get used to it - i just don't see a reason to make the change.

Changing resolutions on an LCD monitor usually makes things look pretty shitty, because the physical size of each pixel is fixed. On an analog monitor the card simply changes the scan rate to make the pixel a tiny bit smaller or larger, but on an LCD monitor the difference has to be "rounded"

eg my native res on my 21" LCD is 1680 x 1050. If I change down to 1440 x 900 (the next step down in the control panel) the ratio is 1.166666. A line of 10 pixels @1440x900 has to be represented by 11.6 "native" pixels... which since you can't change the width of a pixel is actually 12 native pixels. If your ratio isn't a nice round number (like 2:1) then text and line drawings will end up looking slightly odd, because some pixels get rounded DOWN to the nearest physical pixel, some get rounded UP.

When I purchased this monitor I specifically looked for one that had a better dots per inch ratio (or was it pixel pitch? can't remember), which means the pixels are slightly larger than average. They're still small though.

1920x1200 on 24" looks tight for me.

tranza · 09-29-2009, 07:45 AM

That is not a big surprise!

digitaldivas · 10-07-2009, 10:51 AM

I prefer 1024x768. It is the most popular people use.

1600x1200 x 2 on SyncMaster 213T's for me. It's funny...it wasn't very long ago at all that people were afraid to design beyond the 800x600 crowd
