Resolution or Blindness....

Saturday, August 23, 2003 by Phoon | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I just have to know.. how do you folks do 1280 x 1024 resolution on even a 19" (not LCD) monitor, and still retain your eyesight.
For the past week, I have set mine at this resolution, in hopes of creating a DX Theme in 1280 x 1024.. I CANT SEE STRAIGHT NOW.. (Smokey Mountain Rain..lalalala )
(Sorry for the extremely bad taste humor there for those that got it.)

For the longest time I used 1024x768 on my 19" monitor, because I've been using that resolution for so many years prior, I was so used to it. It was only recently I made the switch to 1280x1024, at first it was a bit small, but after 4 or 5 months, I've really gotten used to it. Now everytime I switch back to 1024, it seems so big...wierd how it works. I still have my 20/20 vision too!

you know if it's icon's and fonts you can change all that to make it bigger or smaller while still having a better resolution, I always keep mine cranked and never look back....no pun intended.

i can see it now...no pun intended, we could start a new thread with all the members posting 200x200 or something small like that pics of themselves and everybody can see...no pun intended, all the members we already know on a different level. That would sure be a sight....pun intended

Whoever said that image embedding in posts would be abused obviously didn't know what they were talking about...
