When Size Just Might Matter »
So the other day I downloaded Sizer, a cool little utility that adds a menu item to your windows and allows you to easily snap the window to certain pre-defined sizes. This is most useful, of course, for seeing what your web site looks like at other resolutions. Not long ago, I was accused of having an unsustainable web site, at least because of the width of my template, so this is of some interest to me.
Looking at some statistics, we see that just over 54% of users browse the web at 1024x768. This can certainly explain the reason why so many people have gone to wider layouts. But that's still only half of all users. While 14% use 1280x1024, there are still almost 25% that use 800x600. That's a significant percentage to leave out in the cold. What do all these sites look like at such a small resolution? Let's take a look.
