Great website!! I have one suggestion though. Maybe make it so that people with 800x600 browsers don't have to scroll up and down to see the
content. Just a suggestion. Other than that, I thinks its awesome. Peace Out!

Well I use 1024x768 normally, but I was using another computer at the time. If you do a poll, about half the users on the net use 800x600 and the
other half use 1024x768. I am a web designer myself, so I know that you need to take this into consideration. Just letting you all know. There are
ways of making it appear the same on any size browser.

Sounds like old news. I've been designing sites since '96. Back then you had to make everything fit in to 640x480 and you had to conform
the 216 color web palette. You always had to provide text-only links, keep the main page under 40k and sub pages under 20k. Tweaking graphics to get
them as small as possible was a must.
Times have changed. Computers are faster, more plentiful and most importantly, cheaper. Its so easy for folks to upgrade or even replace thier old
comptuers entirely. In addition almost every browser now supports flash, CSS and other previously non-standard web components. Sure there are still
people running 14.4 (or heaven forbid slower) dial up connections and 13 inch monitors, but its 2003. Its time for them to conform to the designers,
rather than the other way around.
Just my 2 cents.

Use 1280x1024. It looks the best and you can view Planet Asylum properly

agreed
totally.
if you are running 800x600, you can scroll down slightly and still fit the entire flash site in the window with nothing chopped off. or at least i can
on 2 seperate computers.

800 x 600 died a long time ago. Let's keep it that way.

True, but you only need a 17" monitor for 1024 x 768 resolution.
