Hi,

Just wondering what you all are using for your display resolution width??

1024 seems to be very popular.

Regards.

Most web logs give you the resolution on the monitors of the users.

Mine are at 1680 x 1050 and 1280 x 1024 (dual screen)

On a 9" screen 1024 x 600.

Normally I set my resolution to the maximum my monitor can support.

Ditto. Don't see many 1024x768 monitors these days, a lot of people on widescreen laptops (so 1200x800 etc) or 4:3 monitors at 1280x1024.

I use 1680x1050 on 2 22" screens.

I would tend to keep websites between 800-968 wide.

Laptop: 1920x1200 (external), 1366x768 (internal).
Desktop: 1920x1080 x2
Server: 1024x768

I wish more web designers used a fluid theme. 1920 wide leaves white space on most websites.

Mostly 4:3 1280x1024, that suits me. :)

Here is a quick breakdown of visitors to our sites resolutions:
1280x800 = 26%
1027x768 = 17%
1440x900 = 11%
1280x1024 = 9%
1680x1050 = 8%
1366x768 = 8%
1920x1200 = 4%
1024x600 = 2%
800x600 = 1%
320x396 = 1%

Hope that helps at all.

Why? In the last 90 days across all the sites I monitor less than 1% has been less than 1024px wide.

Use min-width 960px. And even that's pretty tiny on a ginormous screen. Experiment with max-width you may be surprised by your visitors (you do need some click trail/heatmapping installed though).
