Screen Resolution & Colours

Different computers have different screen setups. Your computer is likely to be set to one of three resolutions - 640x480 pixels, 800x600 pixels or 1024x768 pixels (where the numbers represent the width and height of your screen). Pixels are the little dots that combine to form the characters and graphics you see on the screen. This website will look very big on the 640x480 resolution, will sit comfortably on 800x600 (the most common resolution) and look quite condensed on 1024x768.

If you have a computer (running a Windows operating system), youwill be able to change the screen resolution by simply changing the Display/Settings on the ControlPanel/Monitor of your computer.The number of colours displayed on your monitor will also affect the quality of the images displayed in a website. The colour palette should read a minimum of 256colours, but if your computer can handle it, it is preferableto select High Colour (16bit) orTrue Colour (24bit). For further information, please refer to your user manual supplied with your PC or operating system.
