>544!? Max!? Wow! What's that look like at a 1600x1200+ resolution?

Well, I actually try to make them fluid, so for larger resolutions the 
sites don't look bad, but 'tis hard to make sites completely fluid (at 
least for me) and so at some point when reducing window down, the page 
isn't going to look to fabulous, so I figure if I reduce down to 544 and it 
still works, I'm moderately happy with the result. I figure for lower 
resolutions, that's handheld territory, which I then use emulators for and 
if the site - some handhelds are good at reducing Web sites on their own to 
fit into the screen, others reduce images or allow folk to turn image 
support off (which I understand most do, which is why folk need to have 
good alt text for their images). I'm still trying to learn how to code for 
handhelds. Listapart recommends avoid using pixes for anything larger than 
5px, to use ems or percentages for anything larger 
(http://www.alistapart.com/articles/pocket/). One day I'd like to implement 
something like <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="handheld" 
href="mobile.css" /> for any mobile visitors, but that's some time off I'm 
afraid.

Anywho, I'm in the midst of major overhaul of our sites, and there are days 
I want to go back to paper (not really, but momentarily I do).

TTFN,
David
