640x480 is what I always use. Go longer if you have to but never
wider...you don't want viewers scrolling left/right, only up/down.
I go a bit bigger. My pages are all laid out for 800 by 600. Some
of my pages
have to be bigger. And no, I can't always lay it out so it expands
and contracts
with window size.
One other thing - I don't use auto centering. I find this varies
with browsers
and often ends up looking strange. I keep everything lined up on
the left with a
bit of a margin.
If you check most big commercial sites you'll find the same things.
