Frequently-Asked Questions

What screen resolution is best with TC?

Bigger is better. 1024 x 768 is what we like best, but TC has been tested with most screen resolutions and works great with everything from 800 x 600 up. TC does work with 640 x 480, but we promise it's an unhappy experience: there's just not enough real estate there to play with comfortably.

BTW, our Web site will automatically detect your screen resolution, and will size the TriadCity client applet to fit your browser. (Yours right now is x ). These are the resolutions it can handle:

  • 640 x 480 (bad!)
  • 800 x 600
  • 1024 x 768
  • 1152 x 864
  • 1280 x 960

A note on setting up your browser. We suggest maximizing the available real estate by minimizing browser bells and whistles. Get rid of the various "MyToolbarDoDad"s, show the smallest navigation icons possible, and just generally make the center of the screen as large as you can manage. We've auto-sized the TC client applet with the assumption that this is what you've done; it'll fit exactly, without scrollbars, if you make room for it.

"The fantastic genre ... involves a confrontation between two worlds whose basic physical norms are mutually incompatible. A miracle is "Another world's intrusion into this one," according to a character in Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49, and it is precisely the miraculous in this sense of the term that constitutes the ontological structure of the fantastic genre."
