    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.

    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    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.

    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.

    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*

    Where's Dr Unne when you need him? We need somebody to announce that coding broken html to fit an outdated and non-compliant browser is teh lose.

    firefox; max-width: whateverpx;
    IE; width: whateverpx;

    1680x1050, as most 22" go.
