Huh... One can add extra resolution to an image (regardless if it is good for the image or not). That is a fact. Therefore, the entire sentence is correct. How could you say otherwise?

First, I believe we agree that LCD monitors should always be run at their native resolution (usually the maximum setting, but not always). However, a screen capture taken at a non-native resolution will have the same quality at one taken at the native resolution when viewed at actual size in Photoshop. The "fuzzy" appearance is on-screen artifacts only and will not affected the use in a document. Now granted, this is on the systems I have tested, so your mileage may vary. >> I thought it was pretty clear. 1280x1040 is the same amount to X/Y pixel >> data on a 17 inch monitor, a 19 inch monitor, or a 20 inch monitor. > That's very true, but that's irrelevant to what I quoted above. Your sentence > makes no sense. We are talking about display pixels--1280 pixels is 1280 pixels regardless of how "big" the pixels are by way of monitor size. This was going back to my statement that "Screen size (20") is meaningless, only the monitor resolution counts." (Just to be sure, I am NOT talking about true monitor pixels, meaning down to RGB elements.)
