Small screenshots don't help.

[Ytterbium]

I'd like to voice my opinion about the size of the screenshots people post for their games. They are small. I understand that they are the size of the game's resolution, but honestly...if my desktop res is 1152x864, and I have a 17-inch monitor, a 320x200 picture will not tell me what it will look like on my monitor. When I release screenshots for my game, I will scale them up so everyone can see what they truly look like in all their pixelated glory.

well 19" monitor and 1280 1024 and 320 200 is fine, you can always use operas zoom function

1. you can open the screenshots in your own graphics editor and zoom in
2. You can post and image on the forum and alter the size for example

(img width=800 height=600) thapicture (/img)

Also, not everyone has a res of 1152x864 -- most have a smaller res.

Like 1024x768?

The only people I see who still use 800x600 are my barely computer literate grandparents.

I use 800x600 on this PC, so watch it.

my laptop is 800 600 and i believe CJ uses 800 600

Yes, I use 800x600 too. I agree that a 320x200 screenshot is a bit small - posting it at 640x480 is probably the best size, since it's not too big so that people like us have to scroll around it; but it's big enough that everyone can see it.

800x600

I use 800x600.


Stone him!!

[Eggie]

I use 800x600 whenever possible.

Maybe, since larger pics might look not too good sometimes, it would be a good idea to post the normal 320X200 and also a link to a bigger version. Or the other way around.

I use 800x600 on my laptop... the only computer I Work with.

The system from Dima's website is good

800x600, mostly because I am nearsighted, my monitor is 16" and weighs like 60 pounds, and I cant afford a new new one. My father just got a 22" liquid flat-screen and still uses 1024x768 which is still large. And if it upsets you so much go get Pixel-Zoom...

[Ytterbium]

Okay, so more people use 800x600 than I think. Personally, I think it makes desktop icons way too big and makes antialiasing tough as hell, but some people don't mind. However, when I post screenshots, I will make them at least 800x600, even though my current project is 640x400. But I plan to take advantage of fast hardware with my games, so I'm sorry if my big five screen wide 3200x400 rooms slow your computer down.

I am using 800x600 now, it is already a very high resolution.

[Snake]

I use 1024x768

Good enough for me. Everything seems so damned big and in the way if I use anything smaller.

Well, I'm sorry if nobody plays your game.

1280 x 1024 here ... you're all so small ... I should move to the States

1400x1050, baby!
