Take the Poll!
Please, please, please take this poll. I need to know whether I can get away with making my website inaccessible for resolutions below 1024x768. I fixed the problem I was having with IE (really, I had the solution almost from the beginning, but I was implementing it incorrectly), but to do it I had to define a fixed width for the layer that holds the main content. When you make the screen smaller than 1024x768, the bar on the right covers some of the text. When you make it larger you just get empty space, which is less of a problem. I will do my best to make my next layout more IE-accessible, but for now I have to concentrate on getting everything back on track.

I think MOST people now tend to use 1024x768 or higher. I'm not sure if they even MAKE new 800x600 screens anymore and sell them to people.

No, but some people have older computers.

Yeah but also the deal with that is that a lot of places made deals where every year or so you could upgrade your screen.

The only people I know who have 800x600 monitors are schools. And even there they're graduating up to 1024x768.

Meh. Still, it's a concern for me.
