I became doing a webdesign course and they said i should cater just for this resolution… now honestly besides really poor locations who uses the following screen resolution. You will get PC’s for 190 that run’s rather well and show 1024×768.
I am building my first site and it is going to be a web development site. How important could it be really to appeal for 800×600 resolution in this day and age
In my estimation, very important.
Make sure you, however, consider what audience your website is looking with. You say it will be a ‘web design and style site’, but what exactly do you mean by this is it focusing exclusively on coding, artwork or another area
There are several ‘noob’s’ to website design that may definitely on 800*600, and even Need to use 800*600 at times at school. HTH.
