zuzu said:Yes, I have a small monitor, so I miss most of the right-hand edge. I can't see the ladybug in today's banner, for instance, unless I click on RobertB's photo in the banners forum.
Wow, I had futzed a little with the screen resolution on my monitor, but didn't go down that low, and hadn't realized the real impact! It really sends home Dave's advice to "Keep in mind also that the logo only covers the first little bit of the banner.
So the interesting part of the banner should start pretty quick."
It's fortuitous that I happened to pose this question today. For easily comparing how a banner looks on different screen resolutions, today's banner is very useful. Though I love tree bark, that one would have been a terrible exemplification.
Click on the thumbnails below. Right click and open each in a new tab for easy comparison.
RobertB's full banner (1500 x1500 pixels) and what it looks like on a 1920 x 1080 resolution screen
Without changing any other settings, the banner at screen resolutions of 1366 x 768, and 1024 x 800
And 800 x 600
