On my 17" HP CRT @ 10x7 they take up more than half the screen.

same :p

and it doesn't matter how many threads per screen you set, they still take up the entire first image you see when you click on OT...

as i said before get a better monitor

that's probably still the most ppoular resolution

anyway i'm running at 1280x1024 and the stickies take up almost half the page. it's not that bad actually but looks funny

smartass, some of us like 85Hz rather than the 60Hz most 17'CRTs run at 1280...

and we're not so well off/infatuated with the intarweb that we can afford/want to upgrade just because the first 10 or so threads on OT are stickies...

if your moniotor goes from 10x7 at 875 to 1290 at 60 then it really sucks

cause it should at least do 75 at 1280 gell it might even do it at 16

we have a 17in CRT that runs 1600x1200 @ 75Hz

A lot of us that use CRTs have handed-down or older Dell or HP CRTs, which aren't designed to run anything higher than 1024 @ 85hz.

Just about NO 17'CRTs run 1280 at higher than 60Hz...

And very few do 1600x1200 (far too small)...
