What's your screen resolution?

Please answer the poll.



Reason I'm asking is because I'm thinking of increasing the max-width of images on the forum everywhere from 1000px in width to 1200px or more.



Example of current max-width, 1000px (this should look fine for everybody)

Hmm, on 1280x1024 only the current max-width doesn't go out of the window :|

Don't worry, my browser is always on my primary!
Edit: Why not make it a user specific setting? Or make the image size relative to the browser window size?

I did look into that a while ago, but I it still fucked up somehow (https://forums.themavesite.com/index.php?topic=23329.msg171882#msg171882), and since on an average page there are quite a lot of images, the page loading time was doubled.

What I do now is resize every image I post to 1000px in width (luckily I can do this on imgur after uploading).
The rule in every image-based topic is also to resize pictures +1000px in width with . (wallpaper topics excluded because it would just take too much time and they're all the same size anyway so one can just control+min to zoom out)
But since 1200-1300 also fits on most people's screens I thought I could increase that value.

If the other active members also all have a Full HD resolution, I'll increase it to 1300 probably.
 
1080p here. Still, I prefer the 1200px width. It looks better, somehow.

I think 1300 might also still be good, below are 1200 and 1300

Why would 1300 be better? A LOT of images on the web have 1280 as width, if 1300 is the width I don't have to resize about half the pictures I post.
 
Computer Display 1600*1200
On second display (tv) 1360*768 (recommended), but hmm don't know if that's the best resolution?!

Highest is always best.



I've concluded that everybody can view an image of 1300px in width, so I'm going to upgrade the current image rules to change the current max-width of 1000px.
Thanks for voting and your feedback!

Uh no. It depends on your screen size, if your screen only has that amount of pixels it doesn't help trying to force a higher res into it. It'll look like shit.

Well I thought the highest option was always the highest possible, my bad.

On modern OS it is, but I believe in XP there is no restriction.
