Well, sorry to hear that Fran. Sometimes the stats are only made available to the site owner and not the viewing public in its totality and to allocate them you might have to logon to a specific page on the host site. Also you might have the option to sign on with different stats sponsors, some may offer more variety in their stats service.

If worst comes to worst, from our discussion above, at least in Sans and my stats you can see that basically, at least at the moment, you would fare well if you sized your web site to either 800x600 or 1024x768. Whereas Sans stats indicate that 80% of his viewers logon at 1024x768 and the remaining 30% at 800x600. In my case 47% logon at 1024x768 the remainder at varying screen resolutions of which 27% is 800x600.

Together the two screen resolutions cover 74% of viewership in my case and 100% in Sans case. In both cases it seems 1024x768 has the leadership but varies between the two sites.

Web site resolution has a lot to do with what the particular site caters to. If the site is basically a message site or a How To site obviously they dont require the higher resolution. But if you plan to gallery high res images like most here do, then the higher resolution might be best for you.
