    What is a good size to make a wallpaper? I was thinking 1024x768 because that is my screen resolution but then I was thinking there is not enough room. Any good sizes?

    I am making a wallpaper. And 800 x 600 is a small size. People with those crappy screen resolutions should get rid of them. They are a pest to society.

    go onto your screen properties, and see what your screen resolution is, then make it that size, but not as high, a few pixels less.

    Yeah, I'd say that 1024x768 is about average these days. My computer is a few years old and it's capable of running at that resolution without any problems. Also, at higher resolutions you shouldn't see TOO much of a drop in quality...
