I am violating my own rules so close out if you are not interested or are on DUN.

A friend wanted to see how screenshots looked in the highest resolution my monitor gets.
I recently purchased a Dell 24" wide screen LCD monitor and he wanted to see a screenshot in it's largest resolution which is 1900X1200X32.


So I resized it to three sizes. (What I need is a better video card)
1-800X600 (it came out 800X500) the proper (I feel) size for forum posting.
2-1600X1200 (it came out 1600X100) the size he fells is right for forums.
3-1900X1200 the size he wanted to see that I'm now flying at.

Nice shots - I like bigger resolution shots because you can see things more clearly, but at the same time, you can't see the whole picture as you have to scroll - so yes, I think 800 x 600 is a nice size Thumbs Up!

You can clearly see the differences in resolution.

I have a 32" Polaroid HDTV with computer video input as well as DVI. It makes for a pleasant ride taking the grandkids on a "couch flight". I am able to set it to accomodate various screen configurations. Sorry, no screen shots available at this time.
