What size picture is best ? - 1 attachment
In the good old days I posted my pics at 800x600. Then with bigger and
better monitors I upped it to 1024x768 but now my resolution is set to 1600x900. I know that many downloaders here use the pics as screensavers and even desktops so I like to fill your screens.( and boots). So, my questions, what size/shape is best for you ? And, is there one size that would best suit everybody ? p.s. In the very good old days I had a green screen and these problems didn't exist. |

I moved on from 800x600 a long time ago and now use 1024x768, which is the option provided by Directory Opus which I use for size conversions. When I use my pictures as a desktop I use the "stretch" option. RiŠardo -- Moving Things in Still Pictures! |

It's good to see you posting again. Cheers, Indrek Aavisto -- Criticism is easy; achievement is difficult W.S. Churchill |

And, is there one size that would best suit everybody ? According to the StatCounter website, slightly fewer than 25% of screens are 1440 x 900 or larger, about 50% are 1360 x 768 or larger whereas almost 70% are 1280 x 720 or larger. There are some limitations/caveats to these data but, even so, 1600 x 900 might be pushing it; 1280 x 1024 might be better as your next step up. Not that it matters much to me: I'm a 1920 x 1200 person myself. And does your question mean that you intend to start posting here again? If so, welcome back. If not, well, welcome back anyway.

In the good old days............ As no-one appears to have any problems with 1600x900 I will continue with that size as it suits me and my monitor/TV. Thanks everyone for missing me over the past four years, I have had a bit of body trouble with first a stroke, then a cancer and then heart failure but no worries, I'm back to strength now. (These pills are great) and looking at everyone's pics on here has kept me entertained. But, the stroke has left me wearing a leg-iron (well, plastic) and using a stick, that stops me from climbing my hill, though many others have stepped into my footprints. It has also stopped me from using my left arm, so the 6 kilo f2.8 had to go and I'm looking for something light and usable with one hand. (Some hope of that giving me the results of a Canon plus 300mm f2.8) No complaints though, I'm still here and I enjoyed over 20 years of low level photography and I am going to post some of my old photos soon, as it is 10 years ago that I got my first digi-SLR. Keep up the good work boys. RustY |
