Tom,

Do you get the total % for screens under 960px?

> Soon I will be adding a new theme to the repository that will hopefully
> replace our current default theme for version 1.8.0 after some work/tweaks
> has been done on it. It will be in a directory called professional_css. The
> themes authors are Fumito Arakawa & Ivy (from Geeklog.jp) and is available
> for download on Geeklog.net (look for ProfessionalCSS_en). To start, I would
> like to thank them for all of the work they have put into the theme.
>
> Besides eliminating table tags this theme does a number of things
> differently. So if you are interested, I would suggest at least downloading
> the theme and take a look at the readme file for more information. If people
> disagree on how certain things are done in the theme I would like to hear
> about it now before more work gets put into this.
>
> Before I add the theme to the repository, I will be updating the theme to
> support the new template changes we have currently in 1.8.0 along with
> adding the new images Rouslan did for us. Once the new theme gets added into
> the repository if anyone does any theme changes, like adding new template
> variables or theme files, please make sure to also add them to the new
> theme.
>
> I do not expect this new theme to look exactly the same as our current
> default theme. It will look similar but if some things are changed around
> for the better, then I am all for it. The one thing I do not plan on
> changing is the color scheme. Rouslan has already put a lot of work into the
> new logo and icons for the site. We can save the major theme design changes
> and page designs like this for when we start the new site redesign at a
> later date.
>
> Once I have the new theme in the repository, people are more than welcome to
> help out. Let's just communicate through email or on the mailing list just
> to makes sure we know what we are all working on.
>
> The first thing I will be doing is working on the general layout which
> actually brings me to my first question.
>
> The new theme is currently has a fixed width of 960 pixels. I would actually
> like to keep the width fixed as I think it looks much better on the larger
> monitors most people use these days. It also makes designing new pages
> easier.
>
> To help in the decision I took a look at Google Analytics for a site that
> gets a large number of North American visitors. Here are the top ten screen
> resolutions:
>
> 1. 1280x800     19.60%
> 2. 1024x768     15.41%
> 3. 1366x768     11.45%
> 4. 1440x900     7.73%

> 6. 320x480      5.16%
> 7. 1680x1050    4.35%
> 8. 1920x1080    3.10%
> 9. 1600x900     2.56%
> 10. 1920x1200   2.03%

> For those of you who are interested, here is some info on what browsers are
> being used:
