1024 x 768- I suck.

1280 by 800, a pain to find wallpapers for.

Reason i'm asking this is because of a new feature that i am implementing in StarTrekEurope at the moment. This feature only works with the screen resolutions that i set it to use. Right now I only applied 1024*768 and 1280*1024 because i tought nobody would use any other format, but it appears that other formats are used as well, as seen here:

This would mean that i will have to define an entire list of possible screen resolutions (and remake the feature for those resolutions).

So i would urge everyone to post their screen resolutions here, if you have an exotic resolution and i am not aware of it, you'll miss some good looks on StarTrekEurope


edit: 1280*800?

1280x800 WideScreen Wallpapers : 1280 x 800
Gallery1 - Free Wallpaper

You gave me an idea. I'm gonna make a wallpaper section with wallpapers for all resolutions.

To make this happen: Everyone who has images that he/she wishes to share, you can send those to startrekfan001@gmail.com and i'll make them into wallpapers that will be up for download on startrekeurope.

1280 x 800 and 1440 x 900 are quite popular resolutions for laptop displays, so if you're asking this for the purposes of site programming, then I'd suggest working with at least one of those in mind.

I use 1024x768.
I just can't stand less than 85hz for the refresh rate

i could use 1600x1200 but it hurts my eyes after too long. so I use 1280*1024

BTW what does the refresh rate actually mean?
