Going back to the basics, in this article you can learn how to change your screen resolution on a Microsoft Windows computer system. If you have your screen resolution set too 800×600 or less, you might experience having to scroll left and right when visiting some sites. It wasn’t that long ago when most sites were optimized for 800×600 screen sizes. During that time, many webmasters would recommend to their viewers to adjust their screen resolutions from 640×480 to 800×600.

Today, is different. Most websites are optimized for best viewing in 1024×768 or higher. When you view a Wordpress driven site such as BTI, there is a good chance that you will have to scroll left and right to view all the content on the page. Depending on what the author adds on the site and how the site is formatted (Wordpress theme design or selection) will determine if you are forced to scroll left or right when viewing the page. An easy way to fix this is to adjust your screen resolution.

In a perfect world, most designers would try to design their site to look good in all screen resolutions as well as all web browsers. But, this world isn’t perfect… and a lot of designers don’t design with this in mind. Some designers are conscious of this, but are forced out of a choice due to lack of design skills (using pre-designed themes and add-ons instead of custom designs).

Ultimately, it is near impossible to design a site that looks good in every possible screen resolution, especially ones lower than 800×600… and again, at this current time, most sites are designed to look good with a minimum screen resolution of 1024×768.
