Kind of Off-topic but here goes:
If I was going to create a title graphic for a site, would 961 pixels wide be too big for most moniters?? I think it might be.

Oh, you betcha.  I think 800 x 600 is the width most people have. 

[Reply #42 on:]

Yeah yeah, 800 x 600.

Mitsui, if you want to do something like that, you should probably make two formats for your site.  One made to fit a resolution of 800 x 600 and maybe another one to fit a resolution of 1024 X 768 or 1152 X 864.

Does anyone know where to get some decent desktop wallpapers in 1280 x 960 format? Even the standard XP wallpaper looks a bit pixelated at this resolution.

[Reply #44 on:]

That's one weird screen resolution.

I could try and do one or two, but don't hold your breath, you'll go blue.

Is 1024x786 wierd at all....that the Res i use?

Eh, works for me.

It's the highest resolution my monitor can display while keeping a refresh rate of 85Hz.

I use 1152x864 and still need more space... I think 1280x960 is for widescreen monitors.

[Reply #48 on:]

Nah, it's directionally proportionate to 640 x 480, 800 x 600 and your resolution too Lucas.

[Reply #49 on:]

Thanks for the tips guys.
Drippy, I might try that if I can be arsed, it sounds a good idea though because the gtraphic I made didnt shrink very well.

ah, didn't notice, thought the next was 1280x1024, but the calculator doesn't think the same...

gotfuturama.com might have some. i have some too, since i used to have that res (now i use 1280x1024). i could never work with 800x600. not even under linux, and i have multiple desktops there.

[Reply #52 on:]

Ben, did you mean you wanted Futurama wallpapers? Otherwise I often pick up some pretty cool things at www.digitalblasphemy.com  which have a range of sizes of all their wallpapers (and if that doesn't work, you can always just pick one and resize it cuz they are directly proportionate)

Thanks Ninaka. I had the mushroom one from there when I had my laptop, but I'd forgotten about it.

[Reply #54 on:]

Yeah I had that same one for months - maybe even a year! Now I got something similar from there, in the same style as the mushrooms... It's called anen--something something... I forget. It's pretty sweet.

[Reply #55 on:]

Done and done.

[Reply #56 on:]

I think the glowing shrooms are called Flourescence.

[Reply #57 on:]

yeah, I had it for some months too.

I've created a picture I want to use as a sig on Paint, and made both JPG and GIF copies of it.  But I can't upload either from the edit profile screen.

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[Reply #59 on:]

I think there's a size limit.

[Reply #60 on:]

90*60 pixels, 2Kb.

[Reply #61 on:]

what does it say if anything?
And are you sure its real jpg or gif and not just bmp with a wrong ending? if it wont work, send to me and i will set it up manually. There currently is this sig up for you:


 
using [SIG ]00001692.gif[/SIG ] without the spaces

It wouldn't upload because the ending was GIF, not gif.  Once I changed that there was no problem.

Thank you! I couldn't figure it out. There we go.
