1280x800 (wide-screen) takes the #1 spot from 1024x768

for ages 1024x768 have been the top screen resolution, for the users across my own sites and my customers sites. But today - for the first time on all of the sites together - 1280x800 (wide-screen) have taken the place as the preferred screen resolution.

If I look at the stats from a month ago, it looks like 3+ % of my surfers got a new laptop or a wide-screen display for x-mas.

1. 1280x800 - 25.62%
2. 1024x768 - 25.52%

3. 1280x1024 - 19.22%
4. 1440x900 - 9.66%
5. 1680x1050 - 8.90%
6. 1280x768 - 2.17%
7. 1152x864 - 2.06%
8. 1280x960 - 1.41%
9. 1920x1200 - 1.19%
10. 800x600 - 1.09%

I'd still design for 2. 1024x768 - 25.52%

unless you want to use CSS and make it scalable %wise.

1024x768 is sooo ancient, I haven't used that resolution in probably 10 years...

I do the same, but I't funny how fast it changes.

You'd be surprised how many sites still design for 800X600. As much as I love playing on Pogo they still design their games around 800X600 screens. Many sites still offer 800X600 wallpapers and often do not have anything for widescreen monitors. I'm not sure the last time I've seen acomputer that came with a monitor that came with one that was 4:3. Nor can I remember the last time I've seen ones being sold individually that are not widescreen.

Going by your data it looks like 45% of your visiters have widescreen monitors. Probably more since I suspect many have widescreen monitors but use 4:3 settings because they don't know better. By this time next year I wouldn't be surprised to see that number reach nearly 60%.

2/3 of your visitors use a screen width of at least 1280. By next year I'd start designing for 1280 wide.

I feel sorry for anyone still on 800x600, and sadly I know some people that just won't stray from that resolution for some reason. I'm on 1360x768 on a 32" ViewSonic TV...I'd love to get better resolution but can't seem to find a fucking driver that works for it.

800 X 600 FTW !

Actually, thats cool, cause my main PC that I work on daily, and do a 'bit' of design on...
Is actually 1280x800 so I must be 'inadvertently' heading in the right direction !

Thanks !

Funny (or sad) thing is: A lot of linklists still won't accept sites bigger than 800x600.
