There is no perfect size really. It all depends on content. If it is just a personal site to show some of your work, you can make it really small while still keeping it awesome and functional, but if it is a professional site that has a lot of info, it will have to be bigger to display all of the info in a nice clean way. ---

I have to agree with lostinbeta. I usually try to talk my clients into 700x400, so that almost all visitors can see the site without scrollbars. I wouldn’t use fullscreen, or pop-up. Just My Opinion… Rev:elderly: ---

yeah 700x400 is good! so both, people with 1024x768 and 800x600 could see the site without scrollbars n’ stuff. ---

i usually just use the defalt size, i find that works… It doesnt leave a lot of neg space. And if you need more, you slowly go up…thats what i like to do. :P. i finally started on my site! i cant wait guys! just a few more tweeks here and there, i really am keeping it simple.
