Screen Resolution

Zillah

Seems relevant to photography presentation: Whats your screen resolution at? Do you constantly have to scroll to see pictures or are they all thumbnails to you?

Mostly I'm curious to see if I see the world in the way others do...

1024x768, all thumbnail view (not filmstrip), suits me just fine.

1280 x 1024, not unconventional. Very standard native resolution for non widescreen monitors, also running it with a second 1024 x 768 in an extended desktop!

Well I have a twin desktop ..

my LCD monitor (HP1702) is - 1280 x 1024
my HDTV (Panasonic TH42PV500 42" HDTV) is running a slightly modified 720p configuration amounting to - 1216 x 684 which I created myself using powerstrip... this allows my windows to maximise perfectly to the screen.

... I call that wierd and unconventional .... the panny is just great for slideshows and I do most of my photoshop work on the HP.

Edit - forgot to add on my work laptop I have 1280 * 768 in standalone widescreen mode ... and in the office I have dual view both set up at 1280 * 1024 ...

1280 on my pc ,1024 on laptop . This thread has me looking for bigger monitors ,I've seen a 24" widescreen 1920X1200 at the mo.
Leaves a lot of space for tools and workspace on the screen :eek:

1280 x 1024 running natively on my 17" LCD monitor. Can't go any higher and no desire to go any lower (except for games)

As soon as I sell a kidney I'm getting a 30" widescreen 2560 x 1600 monitor, maybe one of the Apple ones .... you only need one kidney right?

I feel woefully inadequate. Damn you people with money to spend on geek stuff!

Seems like 1280x1024 is most popular and its not even one of the options. Between work and home I have the following.

Desktop1 Dual TFT 1280x1024 (17") and 1024x768 (15")
Desktop2 Dual TFT 1280x1024 (17") and 1280x1024 (17")
Laptop1 1280x1024 (16.1")
Laptop2 1440x900 (14.1) (don't like this though)

Dman_15

1600x1200 or 1856x1392 depending on whether i want to squint or not on a 21" crt

Roen

Two 1024*768.
One CRT for 99% of the work and the other is a TFT for the odd time I need more real estate.

positron

1400 x 1050 - This is the native resolution of my work Dell Latitude 505.

1600 x 1200 - my four year old Dell Inspiron 8200 15" UXGA screen (still rocks!!)

same as....

I've always wondered why 1280x1024 is the standard for desktop LCD monitors even up to 19" while laptops are often of higher resolution, even though the screens are physically smaller. Mine is also 1400x1050.

sionnach

1280x1024. Was going to be 1600x1050 but then I got into photography and money went bye-bye

Huh. It would appear that I grossly underestimated the quantity of laptops.

mloc
