People use monitors with different screen resolutions. The most commonly used is 800 x 600 pixels. However, many newer PC's and Mac's come with monitors that display 1024 x 768 pixels, 1280 by 1024 pixels or more, and many people with older PC's have monitors set at 640 x 480. Browsers will actually move the Images around and the lines of text will stretch or shrink, all depending on the monitor's resolution.

Shown below is the exact same web page viewed on a Netscape browser, but at different monitor resolutions, from lowest to highest resolution. Notice how the browser moves around the graphics and text, and how the higher screen resolutions appear to shrink the graphics. 640 x 480, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768.
