Here are the results of the width survey. Thanks to everyone who helped out.

The majority of you who took the survey have your browsers set about 980 pixels wide (letter P), with 29% of you lower than that, and 29% of you larger than that. Designing Tiki Central to fit 743 pixels wide (letter J) allows 97% of all TCers to see the whole page left-to-right without horizontal scrolling.

Total votes: 220
