A lot of clients have weird perspectives. A Flash site I designed at
800x600 was deemed "too big" for their screens - 17" monitors at
800x600 resolution. No matter what I did, they wound up insisting
not only that the page show up at 640x480, but that the movie be
formatted as "exact fit", i.e. stretch-o-vision, so that "if the
viewer wants it bigger, he/she can have it bigger". I swallowed
hard, hoped for the best, and made a good site for them. I just tell
people to stretch it in proportion...
