[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 486772, member: 2960"] I'm not meaning to sound argumentative, that wasn't my intent. Yes, I understand that many sites are moving towards higher res sites, but they aren't all there yet. Many of them do shrink down, not all of them to exactly 800 px, but they do go under 900 px. They do allow users to reduce the resolution and still not miss out on content. The point I am trying to get across is, there are still many users out there with lower resoltuions. There are still plenty of people who use lower res (even on a high res monitor) for eyesight problems or just plain easier readability. When you are designing a site, you should at least try to make it accessible to as many people as you can. Especially when 20% of your audience is on a lower or unknown resolution. Even W3 School's site is readable in 800 x 600 and they are the ones who pretty much came up with the whole "Web Standards" thing. :) [/QUOTE]
