Title: What's your screen resolution?
Post by: Secundo on December 15, 2007, 10:26:19 am
What's your screen resolution? Also, do you browse in full screen? I know I used to until I switched over to a widescreen format, 1440x900.

And if you want to know why, it's just for a new website I'm designing for, and this forum hits the target audience I'm aiming for. Thank you!

If your on a windows right click on the desktop -> Properties (Personalize) -> Then the Display Settings Tab (Display Settings)

That'll tell you what your resolution is, and potentially adjust it.

That's what I have, didn't think it was too common, but yeah, I love the monitor. Also, what is up with the widescreen users that browse in full screen? Do you enjoy white space?

Anywho, thanks for the replies so far, exactly what I was looking for.

Oh jeeze... You'd probably be the fourth one that doesn't browse in fullscreen then >.<

I'm assuming it's a double screen then? jeeze kenny, bit overkill eh?

To me, there is no such thing as overkill when it comes to screen resolution. I'm actually thinking of getting a third monitor. >_>

Some people have faster video cards or faster processors...I have tons of Desktop space.

This is how my Windows desktop used to look. The wallpaper? I took that picture. Because of the resolution, I usually can't find any good wallpaper for that resolution so I have to take my own pictures.

Oh, and, no, technically, I do not surf the web in full screen, however, my web browser typically has it's own monitor to itself. So, you can assume I surf the web in 1280 x 1024.

Edit: And, Secundo. You need dual monitors. You would love it. I know you would.

Same as Kenny, but I have Internet on one screen and flat screen monitors.

I worked with IE a bit and found a nice program
it sets up the page different for those it can
no white space, just a shorter page

Wow Kenny, that's a nice setup. I've wanted a dual screen for a while now, but I've never quite gotten over the hump. I've switched back a desktop all but a month ago, and dual screen laptops haven't hit mainstream yet...

But all in all, I'm jealous

You could plug a monitor in the back of most laptops, usually. It should work with a dual monitor setup. I remember using mine to hook up to a video projector once. I could do work on my laptop and have a video file playing on the projector screen. Essentially, that was dual desktops...one was just on the wall.

Well... that would kinda of eliminate the point of the portability aspect of a laptop, if you had to lug around another massive screen.

But I get your point ; )

whoever has 800x600 fails at life, and should be kicked in the balls.
