Seriously, my ASUS laptop just got one.  You should check over your monitor regularly.

You bastard. No sooner did I see this thread that I notice what looks like one on my screen too... except that it's ONLY dead on RMRK thread pages. Happy Belated April Fools Day to the ass who scared me into thinking something happened to my monitor for a few moments. :mad:

check your monitor for pixel cancer by rubbing gently and seeing if you find a red lump

This thread made me notice an actual stuck pixel on my screen. Thanks, now that's the only thing I'll be able to look at.

I noticed some dirt that was on my screen before the dead pixel :/

Got one in the top left of my monitor. Thankfully it's there, out of the way. Otherwise I'd go nuts.

My dead pixel was moving when I scrolled before. Now it's not.

Guess it's really dead, now. :'(

I bought two monitors in a row that: had multiple stuck pixels, and then a big streak of deads. It looked like a sharpie had been taken to the screen.

Samsungs!

It's really annoying, yeah.

also I got freaked out when I saw the pixel on RMRK. Then I realized that it was just RMRK. You got me good.

<Anski> This monitor is really old
<Anski> If I got another one it would have probably been by now.

How did you do that? Is it something that sits on a topmost layer?

I'm completely dumb with web design.

<div style="position: fixed; top: 200px; left: 225px; height: 1px; width: 1px; background-color: #FF0000;"></div>

Or you could just, you know, make your browser window not full screen and move it around.

It took me until now to realize that.

So how long are we doing this? Because it's not April Fools anymore... and now it's like... kind of awkward that an April Fools joke is being carried on this long... yeah...

It's in my signature and I've been too lazy to remove it.
