Now I have never claimed to be a professional in Web site design. I know there are many more folks out there that are better than me and many more folks out there that are worse than me. I would consider myself somewhere in the middle. However, I can remember back when designing for 800 by 600 screens was the standard. Is it still the standard anymore?
The more redesigns and new designs I see, the less 800 by 600 designs I notice. Why? I’d would like to think that the average computer user is at least using 1024 by 768 by now. As for me, I am bumped up to 1280 by 1024. The main reason I bumped up so high was my purchase of my 19 inch Samsung monitor.
How many of you are still using 800 by 600 if any? I’d like to expand some on my Web sites, but I still have a tiny fear in the back of my head that I might be shutting somebody out if I design my layouts more towards the 1024 by 768 crowd.
So am I right for being worried or am I just being paranoid over something trivial?
You tell me.
