WHAT ! ?

I SERIOUSLLY DIDNT GET YOUR QUESTION DUDE :o.
Monitors usually have nothing to do with what size marque.

If you mean like "whats the regular size marque?"

Then answer is around 26"x8" or so... ;)

Mine was little larger then that because thats how i wanted this.

You REALLY gotta look for only hi res and if you cant find..dont use the small images..you will regreat when you actually print.do some test prints at home before the real thing too..you can actually tell if it looks good or not by doin some test prints..good luck and DO post result and stuff.. ;)
