1024x768.

It's a real pain when you're looking for a wallpaper.

And I have troubles when I can't maximize a window. I like 'em as big as they can get.

Oh my...

Are you kidding? I can't find wallpapers that aren't 1024x768.

Link plz?

I either have to find a 1024 -

- okay, I understand where I screwed up. It's 1280x768, but I've had years with a 1024x768 reso that it's still not out of my fingers. Silly fingers.

So I have 1280x768, and I either have to find a 1024x768 wallpaper that looks good with pillarboxing, or a 1280x1024 wallpaper that has a bottom that's not significant. Most times I just give up and center a funny comic strip or something.

Most of my wallpapers are from one particular fandom that I'm not sure many people around here have much interest in. And I've never even seen a 1280x768. Doesn't that look a little stretched?

Well, to me it looks awesome. As a computer monitor, though, it looks short.

Which is wrong, yet not. But it's the only LCD monitor I have, and I can sit on the other side of the room while using it.

Oh, occasionally I zoom in with Opera's zoom in thing, if that matters at all. It blows up the text as well as images.

So now my laptop is working again, and apparently I'm at 1280 x 800 resolution. Which, let me tell you, makes it difficult to find proper backgrounds...
