    Just out of curiousity, what is your monitor resolution?

    I think Luciano's poll may be a bit more realistic, as obviously the vast majority of people on this forum are involved in some type of graphic work. Thus, larger monitors (and resolution) are more the norm, rather than the exception, as evidenced in Gary's poll.
    I don't think I would design for larger than 800x600 just yet, although it's only been two years since everyone suggested no more than 640x480! Alas,the wheels of progress.

    1600 x 1024 (16 bits because otherwise Win2k often freezes with my GeForce2 MX and any driver; I have also suppressed shadows and other unuseful transition effects).

    Kindly,

    Gary,

    you did forget to mention 1600 x 1200 and 2048 x 1536, which I am running.

    Sorry I have to post this manually ;-}

    Gary,
    maybe I can help you.

    We keep statistics of visitors browsing through the sites on our servers.
    More or less the situation is the same on every site, 800x600 and 1024x768 are the most widely used.
    Attached you find a part of the report.

    Ciao
    Luciano

    I also am not able to vote, as I run 1600x1200 at 32 bit.

    I can't vote as I'm on 960x1280.

    If you don't work against time, time often works for you.

    I have one set at 1024 x 768, and one at 800 x 600
    on my system at work. That way I can easily drag a page from one monitor to the other to compare.
    We design software for sales lead management and other custom apps, (programmers code it, I try to make it presentable), and most of our clients use these two resolution settings.
