On a 1280x1024 I tend to have a +50% number of tiles wide and twice the default (default sized/tileset) tiles tall, which I think is 120x50 tiles of whatevervanillais size themselves. It takes up much, but by no means all, of the screen and gives me space for background windows to peek past and/or thinner(/shorter) windows to sat 'docked" to the sides and top/bottom. Depending on what else I have open at the time, e.g. a notepad window with aides-memoire jottings-down.



Not that I'm in the market for high-res tilesets, personally, but as a reference-point anyway.
