Build a Better Blog... themes, why 960?

 Hi guys, before I begin covering themes on my WordPress in Plain English series, I thought it would be a good idea to explain why so may blog themes and blog graphics (i.e. headers) are 960 pixels wide.
 

 This is the 2nd post in my Build a Better Blog series that will look at design concepts related to every blog platform including ActiveRain, WordPress, Posterous, etc...
 In my previous post Minimalism... It's Not Just For Breakfast Anymore I mentioned that we were going to look at...
- why I always use images that are 500 pixels wide (or less) in my posts
- and how to avoid "breaking" your blog (i.e. why sidebars sometime show up below the content)
  This post will answer both of those questions and will also help you to see why it's so important to be aware of what you add to your posts and sidebars.
 

 If you've looked at popular WordPress themes or customized your Rain blog, you've probably noticed that a lot of blog themes mention they're 960 pixels wide. You've also probably seen the number 960 when you upload an image into your Rain blog header.
