Ah but default was not in the OP, so I stand by my use of 800x600.
Also, I AM silly :P

If you're not a company, a web professional or the like who has an image to keep up, you don't have to worry about it. However, it never hurts. There are still low-res screens out there, and Internet use via mobile phone and other handheld devices is increasing rapidly. Besides, tons of people don't have their browser windows maximized, which might actually bring the actual available size closer to 800x600 than you might think.
If you know some CSS, it's not too hard to pull a few tricks that makes the design adapt to the browser window's size automatically. Here are some common resolutions, if you want to delve deeper into the subject.
I'm using 1024 by 768 at the moment. Don't know what Daniel's using. :mog:
1680x1050 on one monitor and on my secondary I use 1440x900.
1600x1200@75Htz, i like to have screenspace for several applications at once... no one has used 800x600 in ages, no one that i know anyway except for the occasional newbie's who have just bought their first computer and don't know any better...
1280 x 1024.
I don't think I've seen an 800 x 600 in years. :p
FYI I actually use
1920x1200 + 1440x900
Dual screen ftw
Jesus Christ, some of you people use HUGE resolutions o_O
I made a fluid layout with a 1024 base, but it's going to look so bad on like... 1400+ resolutions because the text is just gonna go all across the screen. xD
I dunno now. Do you guys browse with the browser not at max size or something?
jojo:
firefox; max-width: whateverpx;
IE; width: whateverpx;
because IE is dumb and doesn't know what max-width is 8) That would be inside your area for text
I know, but I wanted the text area to expand with the browser. I spent all afternoon coding it into a fluid layout. Bahh I'll just make it a set width *dies* So much easier. xD But less spiffy.
just set it to like 1200 px xD and then have plenty of margins and paddings and then it'll be all spiffy up to that width and slightly lessthereafter!
Oh I get it ^_^ max-width rocks. Is there any way I can get it to do that with IE? :( I already set width to 100% so I can't do another width: setting.
Edit: Wait, what am I saying. My width is not at 100%, it's at 90, and I don't need that anymore for firefox now that I have max-width. *thinks*
1680x1050, as most 22" go.
