Do you guys still consider 1024x768 when builidng a site?
 

I know only a small percentage are still using that resolution, but do you keep it in mind when building a site?

I use the bootstrap framework and test on everything from phone size on up.

Fuck no.

That's what responsive design is about; not giving a shit about resolution.

What kind of fucking question is this from a developer?

Give me my fucking money back if I ever bought anything from you.


:2 cents:

If I had to choose a sngle resolution to design around it would be 1920x1080.

But if your design is responsive then it shouldn't matter, the site will re-format according to the device.

The only real issue should be the quality of your thumbs and preview videos on the Tour. :)

I use bootstrap too, my question is more when you build a site for 1920, you have lots of room in the header lets say, if you fill it out, it will be messed up in 1024 then you will have to decide what to cut in that res... especially for text

DaFuCk?

*checks to see if this is a 15 year old thread been bumped*

Nope.

*scratches head*

I presume OP is asking if we build sites with SHITLOAD of header elements (texts, menus, graphics, whatever), which get fucked when resolution is smaller

am I right or am I right?

You are absolutely right, and me i have users that can add text themselves in different places in the header so they can easily mess it up in 1024. And cutting text is not good SEO wise so i have to hide and tweak and its a pain

Everybody except the OP already fixed those ancient problems.

:helpme

Responsive all the way

You just won a nice place on my ignored list right next to Paul

At least I won something for my efforts. :1orglaugh

Don't ignore this video though.

Hi HD,

The screensize of your viewers should be more or less irrelevant now. Every site should be "responsive" so that it resizes to look good on every screen size or device.

You also have to keep older viewers in mind, even when it comes to colors. These days, alot of sites have light grey text on near-white backgrounds because it looks kinda cool, but some older people have trouble seeing it. I have one client who is 80, and complains about this alot. And I listen, especially since he spends alot of money. :)

Forget building to a specific size if you can. Build for all sizes.

Good luck!

Ummm, you better be careful. You might get on the ignore list.

I apologize to hdbuilder.

The way I made my post was not necessary.

I admit that I was a jerk in this thread.

:2 cents:

I don't know if you all are fucking with him or just not understanding his issue :1orglaugh

If you put too many elements (and text) in responsive design, it still looks like crap when screen size is reduced (like, full mobile screen of various shit on header only)

So to answer the OP's question... purge it all from header and move it elsewhere, as simple as that. Case closed.

Don't worry, i don't care about the trolls that don't read shit and cant understand a thing. you on the other hand and a few up there understood what i meant. Thanks for your input.

Apologies accepted

Yeah, but move it with responsive design; don't purge it.

:2 cents:

I build for 600 x 800 , mostly amber CRT monitors ....

Purge it from header I mean, no need to have shitloads of content in there.

I don't have that issue because I use media queries and special classes that tell the elements to do certain things at certain sizes, such has hide themselves on smaller screens as to not cramp up the design.

Yes but be careful with hiding stuff as I got a penalty for hiding some text on mobile that is in the header on wider screen sizes. At least I am 99% sure I did, when I changed it back I got my traffic back. I guess it depends on how important Google thinks the text is.

Responsive designs for the win.

My script phones home the browser res, I just checked over the past couple of months and nearly 10% of uniques are at 1024x768. So I wouldn't write them off just yet.
