I did as I'm have to use a net book of lap top and anything bigger than that trims.

Well, my laptop runs at 1280 x 720 and my primary screen on my desktop runs 1920 x 1080, so I can't vote either way.

Yeah...as I said simply because any bigger is probs

The actual screen is 1024x600....it was the 600 that put it in that category. :worried:

Hi Garry, its the first number in the resolution that tells you the width, so that, or the closest to it should be the option you choose, the height of the screen has no real baring on this ;)

I know that Ben :lol:

But the 800x600 pic was already too big for that screen and the larger laptop I sometimes use...hence my choice of that option.., the given size below what I had. :hide:

Well Ben, I would, but neither are options on the list and I use the desktop as much or more than the laptop, so not having any 1920 option kinda means that I can't vote that one. :)

Hi Jon,yes that the correct option for you :thumbsup:

Chris, the closest option for you based on what you've said would be the 1680 x 1050 one. ;)
