I'm going to reply to everyone on THIS THREAD so that the stupid topic subject doesn't kill me... thanks to Corpsie...

RedShoe:

"The Macs at work always open new browser windows smaller than the full monitor size"

This is what I hate. Lots of people out there do not know how to tell their browsers to load full screen. Heck, I don't even know! IE doesn't get the point until you open a new window, or restart the program. If you ever refer to an old window that you opened before you fixed the problem, say goodbye to whatever size you set it at. It's a pain. Why can't it just leave it how you last modified it? But it needs to refer to the settings of older windows that you haven't modified yet. It's the browser?s fault, NOT MINE. I am trying to fix it. Most people want it full screen. I've seen people mess with this, and get aggravated with it. If the browsers would open their windows to the size the surfers wished for them to be open, then I would leave it alone. But they don't.

Makaveli:

"Hey don't listen to Corpsie hey likes to jerk off to pictures of dead babies.... What the fuck does it matter what he says?"

Exactly. Enough said.

Gemini:

"Its considered impolite to mess with a surfers browser on that level. You should give them the choice in an option page. Mess with my icons on my screen and I scratch out your eyes! lol I use 1152x864 and don't want kicked back to 800x600 etc just cuz a webmaster decides it for me! lol"

No no, gemini, I don't do that!!! I fullscreen the thing, no set it to a specific size. I wouldn't be that stupid and annoying!! ha ha. Like I said, I'm trying to help the surfer. If I didn't have an option to fullscreen, but had to hardcode it to 800x600, I wouldn't have done it.

Also, Please read above, do you agree with me, now?

Kat:

"i'm with juge on this! new screen should be full screen and optimised so it's seen as the maker intended."

Woo hoo, kat! Thanks for the support!

Ed:

"I do it also.
He got it from me
He like to steal all my ideas, don't ya Juge.
Ya damn theif
haha"

Thanks Ed!

HQ:

"thumbs down on corpsie for giving the thumbs down on juge"

Yes! thumbs down to corpsie. Stop making me look bad. If you had a question, ask the question, and leave me out of it. Don't pin-point me of thousands who do this and blame me. It's not like I'm maximizing it so that you need to know alt-f4 to close it because you cant see the buttons or something foolish like that.

Corpsie:

"Also, you use % in your site, so why do you need to maximize the window? It's not like you wrote the site to fit in 1024x756 absolutely, you have relative sizes which should make the site fit properly in any size window."

Huh? How can I possibly know the size that is optimal for each resolution? If you are pissing on my site because it goes fullscreen, then piss on every other webmaster site that pops up another, then another, then another. I have to deal with the extra crap just like everyone else. All mine does is go fullscreen. Realize that 50% of surfers are still in 800x600 <--- DO YOU REALIZE THIS EVERYONE? look at your sites in 800x600 without it fullscreen, at the size the browser chooses because it makes it difficult for (most) people to set it. ugly.
