For the technologically inept, how do you find this out?

1280*1024<br><br>Bocaj - if you use windows (as the technically inept tend to... Or macs. No offence to anyone intended, I don't consider myself technically inept and I use windows), right click on your desktop, click properties, and then click the 'settings' tab. That will tell you what res you're using and allow you to change it.

Bocaj: in Windows, just right click on the desktop, select "Properties" from the menu and then click the "Displays" tab on the window that appears.<br><br>1440x900 for me on my iMac here, which I guess qualifies as "widescreen".

1280X800. Everything else looks weird to me *shrug* (And thanks for the help Gizensha and GhostWay)

I run on 1600 x 1200, single screen. Actually, I want to use both, but my other monitor is missing several parts and doesn't show the red channel.

Triggerpoint is my not so new webcomic, and currently under heavy work before it resurfaces.

Eh. The red channel is just a bunch of communist propaganda anyway.

1024×768<br><br>At least, that's what my Nvidia driver says is best for a 17 inch monitor.

1152x864, because it's the optiimum resolution for a 17" CRT monitor (i.e. as big as possible without flickering)
