I'm actually in agreement with you, but I'm trying to find reliable proof. W3schools is a good source, but it's too general for my purposes. They don't give specifics above 1024x768, plus a lot may have changed since January. Thanks for clarifying, Nathan. I’m actually in agreement with you, but I’m trying to find reliable proof.

Therefore, they shouldn't be considered to represent the internet as a whole, but merely people who visit my website in particular. <a href="http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_display.asp" rel="external" rel="nofollow">This page</a> is typically considered a good source of information on Internet-wide statistics, however even that might not represent the Internet's users as a whole.

"Only 26% of screen resolutions are at 1024×768". Looking at various stats, it still seems to be around 45%. Could you list a few of your sources please?

I never really got into the fad of making everything miniscule - apparently it was a designer's visual choice in the matter, but it's completely unusable. Too many 18 year old designers and their cursed excellent eyesite! I agree with you 100%.

I think a lot of designers have not realized this math and I still see sites that are illegible because the 10 pixel text is so tiny. I use 14 pixels now, and it still can seem small.
