As the size of the tv is bigger. Like would a 26 inch have's smaller dots or up and down lines then a 32 inch or up... meaning the 32 inch would have's bigger dots or up and down lines. So I need to know this lol thanks.

Bc I know they do with up and down lines like in a 20 inch tv set then you go to a 24 inch and the lines are bigger for real.

So I guess it be same for tvs that uses dots on the screen be bigger bc of bigger size and the smaller size tvs would have's smaller dots... I think I am right.

All else being equal, (display type, native resolution, etc), then the larger TV will have larger pixels.

It does however depend on the technology you're looking at and the native format, which differs. See the HDTV FAQs starting with "Types of HDTV".

For example, all consumer CRT-based TVs have a native HD format of 1080i, while most other TVs are 720P, 768P, 788P, or sometimes 1024P or 1080P.

A smaller TV will often appear "sharper" when looking at two TVs from the same distance, however, you should not be looking at them from the same distance. You should be looking at each one from the "proper" distance. See the HDTV FAQ "How large an HDTV to buy".

I understand that... but that jsuth ow it is... and I sit close to a tv so bigger pixels and bigger dots (saying dots bc i'm talking about a Sharp tv) I dont want to see thos... so the smaller the less ya see and maybe not even see them at all.

Monitors have's the smallest dots and you cannot see them even if your haft a foot alway from the screen but if you put your eye right up to it really close for like 5 to 10 secs you see them after words.

Be cool if tvs could haves small dots for the screen like monitors no matter the size of the tv. :D Looks like I will go with the smallest I can get... oh well smaller pixels, smaller dots, a good thing and tv smaller size bad thing but I sit close and it be a whole alot chepper. :D

Computer monitors tend to have dot pitch around .26 to .28 mm even at the larger screen sizes which I think 21 inch is the maximum. This is true for both (circular) dots and (Trinitron) up and down red, green, and blue lines. Regular TV sets seldom have dot pitch less than .60 mm while .81 mm is common for medium sized sets. I think large screens, at the maximum of about 38 inches, have slightly larger dot pitches. This is also true for both dots, dashed lines (non-Trinitron), and "solid" lines.

Computer monitors are different than HDTVs. HDTVs generally fall into two categories. One being consumer CRT-based HDTVs which display at 1080i. CRTs don't really have "dots" at all, they have lines and the CRT capability to turn on and off.

Fixed pixel displays usually fall into the "720P" category, with these displays being 720P, 768P or 788P. Therefore as size increases, the apparent dot size on the screen increases. The "light engine" itself doesn't change in similar models.

The newest, most expensive TVs are 1080p, but again the same holds, the light engine doesn't change, but the screen size does.

One should also not confuse the aperture grill or shadow mask on CRTs with the actual resolution capability of the TV, although the maximum resolution is limited by the grill/mask, many CRTs don't have that much resolution.
