Just curious what you maniacs browse this board and the BP website at. I've been using 1600 x 1200 for about 6 months now, and I just bought a 20.1" flat LCD monitor, and the sites look beautiful on it. I'd been working on the site using a 19", 50 lb. CRT monitor since the site's inception in 2003, but have always designed the site for 1024 x 768 viewing (according to my stats, almost 65% of my traffic uses that resolution).
Since I do a lot of design work, I'm always scrutinizing image quality and what-not, so ever since I switched to 1600 x 1200, I have been convinced that this is the resolution to view graphics. Everything is clean, sharp, and non-pixelated. The BP site looks awesome at this res. Granted, it takes some time to get used to the smaller text, but if you have good vision, you just might enjoy this setting.
I'd actually gone out and bought a 19" LCD about a week ago, but 99.9% of all 19" LCDs have a native/max resolution of 1280 x 1024 - which is good - but I'm so used to the crisp clearness of 1600 x 1200, that I returned that monitor and went for the 20.1" w/1600 x 1200.
Drunk and bored on a Saturday night..can you tell?
