Browsing resolution and bitdepth? [1]

questions [2]
I'm about to redesign our website and was just wondering what screenresolution and bitdepth people use when browsing. I have found some global statistics, but they do of course not have to be representative of the RISC OS [3] scene.



I would be most grateful if people could mail me at eli@dnd.utwente.nl [4] with their screenresolution and bitdepth settings whilst browsing. No need to greet me in the mail or anything, just the data will be fine.



If I get enough replies to make me feel that they are representative of the RISC OS community then I'll also post back the results here and on csa.announce where I also made this request.

Of course, with a properly-designed web site, this is irrelevant.

It doesn't matter what screen resolution or colour depth RISC OS users tend to use. Neither is the width/height of the browser windows (you can't assume 'full screen').

Do the job properly, and the site will look wonderful on mega-sized browsers and tiny little things.
