dang how big are your monitors? 1024x768 is so ancient!

1024x768 is the new 800x600. time to move up, guys!

Amelie, if you want to know what other sizes to make exactly, here are the three you'd want to do:

1920x1200
1440x900
1280x800

If anything, do 1920x1200, because it can automatically be scaled down to the others.

Majority of the users uses low resolutions like 1024x768, 1280x960, 1280x1024 and their "equivalent" widescreen resolutions.

So very pathetic resolutions indeed. And that's one reason why the fucking LCDs won't start to have bigger resolutions... because majority is stuck to those fucking tiny resolutions...

22" wide (or two) with 1920x1200 res would be simply great for desktop stuff as secondary screens, and around same size CRT for main display (with 1600x1200 to 2048x1536 res) for graphics and other important stuff.

But nooo... they keeps making those fricking piece of shit resolution screens... palm sized pixels and shit...

To tell the truth I dont know why I still run 1024x768 lol. My monitor can go higher and I have a fast PC, but I dunno I still use it.

Because unless you're doing a lot of graphical work, playing some graphics heavy games, or watching a lot super high def video (high def TV is 800x600), then you really don't need it. That kind of resolution is completely wasted for word processing, spreadsheets, databases, and even most internet applications.

I have a 21" widescreen lcd native 1680x1050 I am probably going to upgrade soon

to me, LCDs are only worth it if you're running it in native resolutions. i see all these people around me with 19" or 21" but refuse to go above 1024x768 because they say things become too small then. apparently, they like the pixelated non-native interpolated screen because things look bigger.

Well I do run high graphic games. I am a very big gamer. I can run all the new games fairly well, but I dont have the best computer in the world so staying at about 1024x768 saves my performance. Guess that is kinda a reason huh, I should think more before I post.

Like hell it is... That's DVD resolution.

Or to be exact, DVD (PAL) resolution is 720x576, but that's the same. And it's FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR from high definition...

High Definition video (and HDTV) is standard that's lowest possible resolution is 1280x720 pixels. The "Full HD", the best resolution of High Definition standard is 1920x1080 pixels.
