Maximum Picture Widths in Forums

Lee · 4th December 2004, 02:08 AM

If your computer is not over a decade old, there is a good chance that you can increase your screen resolution. In Windows, right click on a part of your screen with no icons or toolbars. This will bring up a menu from which you should choose 'properties'. Now choose the 'settings' tab on the right at the top of the box which opens. See the slider for screen area? Move it slightly to the right for higher resolutions that will fit larger pictures on your screen. If you are at 640 by 480, try 800 by 600, from 800 by 600, try 1024 by 768. Further options are 1152 by 864 and 1280 by 1024. Most people never move this setting from how it came and miss much of what they paid for as far as their video card goes...
