[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 631878, member: 2960"] Tell that to the people who work in design and make the graphics for your "text-laden" websites. Tell that to photographers, tell that to those who work in broadcast/video, Widescreen is by far a better format. Just because your end-result printed work isn't widescreen, doesn't mean that a widescreen would not have helped the designer who did the layout you see in your printed books. Example: A book/magazine/periodical is, as you put it, "portrait". Now... open it. What do you see?.... the book is no longer "taller than it is wide". It is the opposite. Designers don't do something one page at a time. We work on multiple pages at once. What if something is a two-page spread? You need to see both pages together... like it would appear if a book was open. [/QUOTE]
