What resolution do you built your website around?

[litewarez]

A general poll to discover what the primary resolution that the majority of web-masters here design for.

Post/Vote away!

I start with a square, 1000x1000

 

[litewarez]

Ed, Resolutions do not come as a square, the importance of using athe best possible resolution is to have a content fold, so that users who come to your website can see the main content straight away without scrolling!

You need to rethink your designing standards I think.

If I make sites with fixed width, for width I use 1000px, and height will increase as content is added.
Why I use that resolution? Because a lot of user have it as minimum on their computers, and for people with bigger resolution they can see some nice pattern in background (all my sites is centered).

I think better question is: what width is someone using when creating fixed sites, because I don't see what role height have.

ya, I'll try 1000px (Width) first

Usually I aim for 800x600 to cater for all users, and make it a scalable width (to a certain extent) for users with bigger monitors

 

[ChosenOne]

1200x1000 is what I use

 

[upnorth]

Its very possible to build a site that accept any resolution!

Yes, it is, but I think he is asking what resolution we are using when site is fixed (without stretching).

 

[l0calh0st]

[Rambo]

I use 1100X1000

 

[shanit]

1200x1000 is what I use

 

[SJshah]

I always try to 1024x768, but I design with resolutions 1200x800 on photoshop to get the background.

 

[ieatlinux]

Same as SJshah.

I use 1024x768 on my monitor, like most of the people according to many many statistics i have, and i must say i see a lot of pages that are annoyingly big and need scrolling.. Im pretty sure they dont get many returning visitors, not everybody knows the control-scroll function.
I always use 1024. Nice poll.
