Designing for Tablets: Feeling My Way Around in the Dark

Cracked TabletWhy designing for a tablet may just kill me…

So for a project at work, we’ve been tasked to come up with designs for tablets, now.

I thought just worrying about browsers was a tremendous pain. Now there are varying resolutions that need to be taken into account. Is it 1024 x 768? 1280 x 800? I’ve seen some sites say to keep it at 1000 or less for landscape. It’s enough to pull one’s hair out.

Oh and androids have pixel densities too, so apparently if I make anything in bitmap form, I need multiple copies in different sizes.

Aye yai yai.

I think I wish I stood in bed.
