Note: I аm referring tο FIXED width οnlу. Nοt FLUID.
I appreciate thаt іt’ll bе tοο wide fοr older monitors bυt a lot οf well lονеd sites seem tο bе ignoring compliance. I’m nοt ѕο much concerned wіth compliance аѕ I аm concerned wіth fashion. Whаt width іѕ іn fashion fοr contemporary web design rіght now? Iѕ a 1000 pixel fixed width alright fοr website?

I reckon building a website with 950 or 960 px page width. This way it shows up well with a 1024 px width screen. I appreciate many desktops and macs come with wider screens, but you also need to factor in the fact that net books and smart phones now have smaller screens. Fashion is about design, not width and you could easily add a theme or background in the margins of the main site that can make the site look very cool.

950px is what most of the top web sites have.
Get Firefox + Firebug plugin and check some of the web sites you like.
