What screen resolution should be used?
page complexity combined
with high screen resolution, visitors to your site using lower resolution will
find it impossible to read. My first 100 pages of my
women's health site, were
designed with my preferred screen resolution. When I uploaded the site it still
looked appropriate to me but others, who prefer a lower resolution, reported
that the text looked too big and went off the screen so that they needed to use
a horizontal screen tab.
As monitor quality improves, surfers are tending to use higher resolution.
The following graphs are from:

The following table demonstrates that there is a trend to use higher screen
resolution:
