err0r Posted April 22, 2010 Report Share Posted April 22, 2010 yes ozzy is correct. It is dependent on what the site does. Some use fixed widths that will not look all that great in larger resolutions. Techgear uses a dynamic width so it changes to fit the resolution. Many sites are still stuck in the old days of doing fixed widths for 800 x 600. side note if you are using either 800 x 600 screen resolution or IE 6 just please die!

takaharu_ Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 I find that 1366x768 is a big step backwards. Think about it - several years ago (around 2002?) 15" TFTs were becoming the standard with 1024x768 as the screen resolution then that eventually went on to 1280x1024. These new 1366x768 resolutions are wider than they were 8yrs ago but it's the same height!!! This is a personal opinion, mind you, so if you prefer wider to overall bigger, feel free. There are quite a few people at my workplace that prefer the slightly wider screen res for that extra column or two on their spreadsheets. I would've gone the extra £10-20 for a screen resolution of... well, just bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
