Re: Page width - resolution
Hi,
Dell in their latest offerings are promoting 19" LCD,s their smallest range for Pc's are now 17". To me 15" monitors are all antiques and can be found in large multi national corps where all they view are alphabets and numbers. The Managers and Bosses would have 19" to 14" Lcd screens to view charts and graphs. Then theres the Yuppies who move about with their 12" screen Laptop which are getting wider but has a limitation not to go further than 12 1/2 ". Along came **** with their **** trying to reduce the laptop smaller and smaller, the *** oh so small and the cellphone smaller still but the consolation is that home PCs are getting cheaper and cheaper and the monitors are changing to LCD screens which are growing larger and larger!
So which viewers are you going for?
When U surf you will find that a lot of sites are going wide [1200] and they are running out of space so they try to cramm in as much as possible so the fonts becomes smaller and tinyer and finally almost unreadable so they have lost millions of viewer with poor eyesights and on and on and...........
So my guess is "To each his/her own" do what U think is best for your site and dont be guided by others for if your site fails, you can blame yourself.
Dont put yourself in a position where you compromise your design freedom in favour of size limitations because that is what everybody says it should be.
Be Guided by what others say and do ,but the final decision is yours make or break.
