How do I make my myspace page compatible with different resolutions?
Hi.
I'm dont use mypsace but I'll assume you're facing the same web layout issues a Yahoo! 360 user would face. Here's what you should keep in mind when working with background images, tables, and text layouts:
1. Most computer users will be viewing your page at one of the following resolutions:
800x600
1024x768
1680x1050 - wide screen
*Well, that's the monitor screen but they might maximize the browser. :-)
2. If you background graphics is smaller than the width or height of the resoluton, it will be repeated until it fills up that width and height. If you can change this by setting the CSS style that forces the background image NOT to repeat.
3. If you are using a table that doesn't specify a fixed width, the table will resize to the width of the browser. Any text or images inside the table will be aligned with this new width. It's best to used fixed with tables when you want things to remain as-is.
4. Font sizes shoulds ALWAYS be specified in pixels. Using points will cause your font size to appear different depending on the resolution.
5. Code to the lowest common denominator if you don't want to create a different page for each resolution type. :-) If you code your page to be viewed at 800x600, it will look good at that resolution or better. Be sure to keep in mind what I said earlier about the repeating background image. If you don't want your background image to repeat, either set the appropriate CSS stype or make the background image width or tall enough so it doesn't repeat. For example,

I made the top image of my Yahoo! 360 page a width of 1680 - the maximum size resolution most people would view it at.
