No, no software and no magic trick available.
It's like buying beer. You don't go buy one bottle, then when back home
you start thinking about how many you need for that party you're about
to have.
Start over, or try to re-design existing site. Here are a couple of
useful links:

Seems not. The user has to set proportional resolution of his screen.
Look on last table in:

One pixel of picture is one pixel of screen space. That is the only
constant. DPI is a measurement for printers and does not relate to
preparing images for display on screen. There is no such thing as
optimum DPI based on screen resolution. Browsers don't read DPI.

Linda, one of us dont understand picture size relations. These tables help to
understand screen size and screen resolution relations which are a base to
Kuly's question. And yes, you can set the density of pixels of screen what
affects on pic dimension on screen which resolution i set to different value by
another user. Because one user sets a different value for screen resolution as
Kuly's, Kuly is in trouble.
And, exactly, a measure for printers is LPI, not DPI.

Which tables?

The important value is browser viewport width, not screen resolution. My
1280x1024 screen rarely contains a browser viewport wider than about 720
pixels. Admittedly, screen resolution affects the range of viewport sizes
you can choose, but beyond that, it's immaterial.

A 700 pixel wide browser viewport will display page information identically
on an 800x600, a 1024x768 or a 4000x3000 screen.
