I have a site that I need opinions on.<br />
<br />
I designed the site in 1028x768, but I need to have 800x600<br />
users view this site too.<br />
<br />
Without knowing java or javascript how can I make people that have their resolution on their PC's set to 800x600 view my site?<br />
<br />
<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.calpa.info">www.calpa.info</a><!-- w --><br />
<br />
Should I have a splash screen, to view this site for 800x600, click here, for 1028x768 click here.... or would that be abnormal.<br />
<br />
Please let me know what you think.<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
PG<!--content-->You should use a flowing design, where almost all sizes are given in percentages, so your pages look the same regardless of resolution. It's a waste of time to maintain two copies of the same thing, and you have problems with search engines, etc (people coming across a link to your site which puts them in the wrong section). Also, using a flowing design supports other resolutions as well.<br />

Adam<!--content-->Should I do a flowing design with the pics I have too?<br />
<br />
I mean, should the night skyline pic (that is in a frame) on the subsequent pages of the site, should those also have % sizes too so they "flow" ?<br />
<br />
Can you give me an example of a site?<br />
I had my frames set like this, whats wrong with this?<br />
