What is the point of limiting website width to specific pixels, especially why go over so much thought for something from 960 -> 1020 or something small like that? You'd think with the netbook and mobile browser shrinking that the designers would stick to their guns.
- bkbleikamp 17y ago960->1020 isn't necessarily that small depending on what the space is used for. If it's just making a content column wider then it's not really that useful in most cases, but if it's adding another column with useful information for the user, then it is a big deal - it makes the website that much easier to use.
- buugs 17y agoHere is something 80 px wide http://www.novavision.com/clinic_images/Neurol%20Inst%20Columbia%20web%20logo%2080px%20wide.gif http://www.novavision.com/clinic_images/Neurol%20Inst%20Colu... to give you an idea of what kind of value can be added Sure adding another column could be useful but as you can see by the authors tone he is talking about flow and divisions of columns and how those go well together and in all reality it sure doesn't make a hell of a difference even if you shrink something to add an extra column. After a while you get cluttered and usability/simplicity goes out the window.
