Widescreen Items?

Monday, June 21, 2004 by neorowen | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I current am using a HP zd7000 and my resolution is 1440 x 900. I can't find anything on this site for widescreen displays. Most of the log ons and boot screens look terrible on my display.

Is there any resources out there for use widescreen users or should I try to just make something myself?

1st. How many people use that screen res.

2nd. are they skinners, if so you may get some skins.

3rd. try making one and see how many downloads you get.

It would be useless to me, and probably many others

I'm pretty suprised how limited the resolutions are. I mean more and more widescreen things are being released. I can't imagine it would take to much effort to encode something in 1.6 as well as 1.33. I'll see if I can mod one of these styles I have on here and post it.

Most people cannot afford the widescreen option for computer monitors, some just can't be bothered to upgrade.

Then again if higher resolutions were the norm, then there would be more skins, etc

And can be hard to design or program for something you don't have

Mod all you wish for your personal use. But don't upload any modified works, that aren't yours originally, without written permission from the original author. This written permission must accompany the upload.  )

Surely if it would, and it happens, then it will and they did, but I don't think it has, so I suppose they won't and they did not or they could not so they haven't - I think

P.S. I'm happy with my nice flat 1280 X 1024

I wish you could get flat panel monitors that went to 1600x1200, but I cant seem to find one anywhere.

Hope prices go down when paper screens will be available to the public.
