I know I've asked this already, but I know I have new readers since I last asked, and some of you may have upgraded since the last time. Anyway, what screen resolution are you using? To check your screen resolution, just right click on your desktop, go to properties, and then click on 'Settings'. You'll see something that says 'Screen Resolution'.
The reason I ask this is because I want to make sure that people who are using lower resolutions can see the designs I make. I usually design using a 1024x768 template, but I try and make sure that the people who are using 800x600 are able to see it, too. However, that makes it a lot harder to come up with cool designs.
Also, I'd like to know what browsers y'all are using. My stats report it, but I get a lot of miscellaneous traffic so the results are skewed. That's also very important because I want to make sure I test for the browsers that people are using. I normally use firefox and one of my biggest internet peeves is when I go to a site that is poorly designed in FireFox. Just because it works nicely in Internet Explorer doesn't mean that it's gonna look great in FireFox! I'm also curious to see if any of you out there are using other browsers. I don't have access to them, but I'd love to use you as a beta tester for designs!
Anyway, thanks for the help...your input makes YWIM a better place to be!

Posted by: Nino on June 8, 2006 02:15 AMI'm viewing in 1280 x 1024, on a Mac using Safari too, and it looks fine to me!
Posted by: Linda on June 8, 2006 03:27 AMI have a widescreen laptop so my screen is 1680 by 1050,, but just so you know the current design is fine to view in the resolution. I use firefox,, I happen to hate when people complain to me that my blog is a bit off in IE,, I tell them that they should then be using firefox.
Posted by: Tara on June 8, 2006 08:33 AMI'm tempted to do what this website recommends so I can get my IE readers to switch to firefox because my site looks awful in IE and fine in Firefox: http://explorerdestroyer.com/. Check it out!
I usually use Sarfari myself or Firefox. I'm on a Mac too!
