Need More Room?
Posted by admin on November 17th, 2006The current standard is still to design websites for the 800×600 monitor (with only 760 pixels usable in width). If you have a 3-column design that include a vertical navigation on the left hand side, you content in the middle, and a special annoucement column on the right for your special offers, you’ll quickly realize that there’s not enough room.
With the new standard, designing for the 1024×768 monitors with about 980 pixels in width to play with, you can give your website room to breath, and truly utilize different columns on your site to achieve marketing goals, improved readibility, and ease of organization.
