Resolution.  What is it?  How does it affect what I view on the internet?  Simply put, Resolution is the exact pixel dimension that your monitor or screen displays.  There are many different sizes/dimensions at which people use to work and view things on the internet. 

This is a guide that will show you how having different resolutions will affect how you view your Twitter background.
