silly 120 dpi screens.. wait i thought screens were ppi?

man… looks like this is gonna turn into a monthly updated blog.
i hope to post more sooner when i get more “free time” i guess. which translates to when i get paid enough at one job to not have to have another. but anyway.. the only news worth sharing is this crazy 96 dpi versus 120 dpi setting some people’s (my boss’s) computers have. i was lucky a more knowledgeable cat had attempted to solve this problem before. where this shows:

pixelated

instead of the favorable:

pixel perfect

and any web page design depending on image size, rather like every website ever, will break because of the images displayed at 125% will knock down the content of the carefully measured to the pixel designs… :(

i just changed my boss’s settings so other websites wont break but i’m gonna try out that script when i get a chance. and i mean if google is pixelated doesn’t that mean that it’s an isolated problem? and that everyone needs to fix there computer… no?

where’s my handy web standards boy scout handbook.
