Hee Hee! Our monitors (we got matching iMacs) are bigger than the television we have in our bedroom and this room. And the computers are hooked up through a PA and soundboard, so we can really hear it good if we have too.

But, we do have a real sized tv in the living room...but we seem to only watch it when we eat dinner. Maybe once a month we watch a movie with the surround sound on.

:lol: When I found out that my $10 computer speakers put out better sound than my stereo, I got rid of the stereo -- I just wasn't using it anymore!

Well nobody has mentioned in the latest posts, but I do think I am overdue for increasing the width of the site to 1024.

For those who care/relate:
I dread working on the design/layout/graphics part of things. So I much prefer a "fixed width" website over a relative sized one as it much easier to work with for me. Well it will probably be a little bit before I'm ready to tackle this project. As spring is approaching, much development will be pushed off for a while...

49% seems liek a high enough % to make a site for :)

to be honest, i always used to think 800x600 was the norm, so i always built my pages with that size in mind...not anymore though lol.

Well, I've got a redesign in mind for the main body of the site, but it will likely take a back seat to some of the other functionality and content that I need to build/add.

hehe...1366x768 on the laptop and a "wonky" 1680x1050+1280x1024 on the desktop, run a dual screen setup with one 24 inch widescreen and a regular 19 inch monitor. Just easier that way as I generally have 2 programs (one modeling program and photoshop) running at the same time.
