Photoshop design different screen resolutions | Visit any Best Buy or any Mega computer center and pull up the same websites on a Mac or PC laptop and/or desktop.
Notice that in 90% of the websites constructed today the amount of blank space on the left and right side will vary. In some cases a texture, photo, or design element is used in the background to give the ‘appearance’ that the entire website is filling the screen, but there is always a fixed-width applied to the primary content area. In most directory style websites there is no background image, rather white or other solid colors are used. (see the illustration below).
Therefore it is a good idea to decide your ‘fixed width viewing area’ before developing your new website or when redesigning your existing website. For example see the illustration below.
Android and Apple Devices
In most Android or Apple OS touch screens such as the Galaxy or iPad websites are automatically sized to fit the screen unless there is a CSS style, image, table, or div tag set above the width of 1960 px.
