I play in a 1520x880 window, max resolution of 1680x1050.

I think the best thing would be to figure out where the zoom (once d# is merged) "snaps" so that larger tile size will comfortably zoom out a level without little distortion.

Moniter is 1680X1050, though with the D# releases I used maximized windowed mode, so it's just a tiny bit less.

I know it's unrealistic, but I can't help but imagine little bearded babies for dwarves. In my mind, they come out of the womb fully bearded. That's how the mother carries them around, too, she just drags them around by the beard or ties it to her belt. When the father's on duty, he just ties their beards together and the baby just kind of hangs there, swinging to and fro with Urist McDaddy's movements.

1920 x 1080 here. Usually end up "zooming" into the tileset, so I can see what's going on, at the expense of a rather generous area in which to plan excavations  and the like.

[GRAPHICS:YES]
[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX:1920]
[GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDY:1168]
[GRAPHICS_FONT:mayday.bmp]
[GRID:120:73]

This fits my 1920x1200 screen perfectly in windowed mode. (I keep the taskbar hidden).

wave: I'll be making either a 20x20 or a 21x21 tileset. It's just harder than I thought :P

I run 2560x1600 and thus would fully appreciate a 32x32. :)

Right now I use Phoebus upscaled to 32x32.

I think your poll have to have checkboxes instead of radiobuttons to get the most adequate answer.  ;D

As for me its 1600*1200 + 1920*1200.

I'm capable of 1650x1080 or thereabouts, but I play in about 1280x400 because I take images of the window and document my fortresses on a forum.  (So I picked 1280)
