How can I set my page width to 1024 px?

I need a wider screen in 3 sections. Is this possible?

Thanks-Lana

You CAN edit the template html to gain a wider width for your pages.

However, I alway keep in mind that over HALF of internet users are using screens displaying 800 pixels wide.

If your pages are wider than that, then they'll have to use their browser's scroll bar to see the right hand side of your pages, if they stick around on your site that long.

It seems to me that the trend to ever larger pixel resolutions as standard is slowing down, and even creeping back.

With laptops now outselling PC's, and the move to TINY cell phone-type devices, smaller is definitely better.

And let's not even mention the "graying" of the population... more and more seniors with bad eyes!

I recently had to fix up my "70ish" year old Aunties PC, she was having problems seeing the text on the screen at 800X600 resolution. Actually had to change all the settings for text and icons as I refuse to go a lower resolution than that!!! Oh, and my normal sites looked very ordinary at this resolution as I design on my widescreen laptop. Definitly worth remembering when designing sites. :hmm:
