Meh, it seems like the posting on the town dropped a bit, so I decided to bring a little something new in... What is yer desktop screen resolution?
Mine is 1152 x 864.
Don't know how to tell? Go to your desktop, right click on it, choose properties, click the settings tab, and there it will be, sitting in a box labeled 'screen area'.

800x600. Such a high resolution you've got... you'll ruin your squinty little lizard-eyes  |

1152*864 at the moment.
Like Psygon says, anything smaller than this is too big for the screen. Well, looks it.

Thank oblivion for large monitors. Mine's usually at 1280x1024, but i have to put it down sometimes to be able to use certain software.
What's cool is that i can usually have it on that rez in games too. Thank oblivion for the GForce 4 Ti-4600 Ultra!

I'm forced to play most games at resolutions like 1024 x 768, because my Geforce 2 MX/MX 400 can't handle 1280x, even at lower color depth, and I don't want to lower the graphical settings |

1280 x 1024. I'm a 'power user,' and need the extra space for multitasking and more exacting resolution for imaging and such.

1280 x 1024.. because I hate having things take up too much of my screen space... Like if I have trillian open, I don't want the whole thing covering my screen =P. And I'm a fast reader so I pretty much have to scroll constantly through pages at lower resoloution and the moving text is harder on my eyes than small text (which isn't even that small).
Same thing with games.. Higher resoloution is usually better because my interface icons are smaller and I can see more of the action.

Well, I use 800x600. Anything smaller is too big (Which is kinda ironic, cause everyone thinks this size is huge) And anything bigger is too small. I believe it may also have something to do with a computer's hardware configuration, and possibly even the type of video card used. My computer is currently set to work (and be seen best at) 800x600.
