is 72dpi ok for fullscreen images on a 40" plasma?
- acescence0
dpi is irrelevant, pixel dimensions are all that matter
- monospaced0
1900x1080 for full-screen.

I believe it's higher than 72 now. 96?

no i thought the pixel dimension were 1024x768

1900x1080 is for HD-complaint screens. If it's not HD it will still ring in somewhere around 720x480, i believe.
1024x768 is a computer monitor screen size.
- and 72pdi doesnt matter ?colour

A 40" Plasma is HD, I GUARANTEE it.
1024x768 is not a "computer monitor screen size," it's just a small 4:3 pixel ratio. My computer monitor runs 1920x1200.- 1024x768 has for a long time been a standard monitor screen size. On the small side now.harlequino

bit confused as i did an animation for same client a while back that was in 1024x768 and they said it was all ok and looked fine but i never got to see it

40" prolly is HD, but double check. I've run into some cheap ass big screen tv's that were not HD.

monos right. dpi (or ppi) is mostly print world oriented.
you just need enough pixel information to to fill the pixels on the screen. Does the screen have a manual?

fuck knows - motion designer mate just suggested i use a 1280x720 dimension - hopefully i will be more successful with that
everyone agree ?
- do you have access to the monitor's manual or product #. i imagine it would indicate the pixel dimensions.baseline_shift
- Should work just fine, that's teh size for 720p HD.harlequino
- no i dont but will use tomorrow to testcolour

Full HD is 1920x1080 72ppi square pixels
partial HD is 1280x720 72ppi 1.33 pixel aspect ratio
U.S. SD widescreen 864x486 72ppi square pixels
or 720x486 with a 1.2 PARi think PAL is 540 tall instead, look under your photoshop presets
- EDIT:partial HD is1280x720 sq pixle and 960x720 1.33 PARrusty_ace

would you say that a 40" plasma is most likely full HD, rusty_ace?

i have seen 40" plasmas as both 720p and 1080i, the back of the tv usually has a size on it, but you could always design 1920x1080 sq pixel and shrink it down to 1280x720 pixel if you find out you are only on a 720p monitor.
