 * UPDATE : Thanks for the inputs. Could you all please refer to this page and provide your opinion of the design? As of now, the page looks superb on 1024px and 1280px but it causes some problem for those on 1440px and beyond. Of course, the main point of this feedback is to focus on the majority users of the community which, as pointed out by Porplemontage (aka Steve), uses 1024px.

Pretty much design for 1024x768. It is the most popular and mostly everyone else is above that. -- 21:58, 13 January 2011 (EST) Mine is 1024x600 for a 10,1 inch monitorC F 0 <font color="Gold">0 <font color="GreenYellow">1 18:01, 20 January 2011 (EST)

1280x1024 on desktop and 1024x768 on laptop here. I'd just like to point out that there's a difference between "display resolution" and "browser window size". My browser windows are about 1000px wide, no matter what computer I'm sitting at, because I actually like to read the text (too wide windows make lines too long and text too difficult to read), and bigger display resolutions let me use stuff besides the browser on the same screen. I'm fine with bigger resolutions and scrolling around, but please don't make the main text column wider than 1000px. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 12:31, 23 January 2011 (EST)


 * I am in the situation such as yours, hence why I decided to improve the design to accommodate those using 1280px and 1024px. Those with larger wide resolutions would be in a detrimental state though. — subtank  13:31, 23 January 2011 (EST)

Design
What do you think of the design and what could you suggest to improve it? Please keep in mind that this is focused towards the majority. — subtank  13:31, 23 January 2011 (EST)

I personally like the current design and the only thing that I think that could be improved upon would be to change the background. I mean white after a while is just boring black or yellow as a background would be more interesting. But i don't really mind either way. my screen resolution I think is 1280-960 but I don't know for sure since I use a mac and don't really understand differences compared to pc for example.
