I dont maxiize but I like drag so it fits the screenn
No omg it drives me crazy lol! If I'm watching something online I might make it so it's half youtube or whatever and half skype but that's it.
I love it full screen because im blind in real life :P
I maximize everything.. Unless I'm doing homework in which I'll probably have half microsoft word, half google chrome. :P
i maximize everything
i didn't think people would prefer any different
haha well when in hxhd snq i do like to have 1 side for google and 1 site for habbo (h)
i usually have windows up u know when u drag to the side and it fills up half the screen? usually have a word document for my essays etc and a browser on the opposite side. maximised if im not doing work tho
I have two screens so having free space isnt normally an issue. Of it's the web browser then yeah I maximise that. If it's programs such as Skype then no, I normally snap that to the right hand side of the screen. It really depends on the program really and what I am doing on it.
Maximise everything
I maximise all the time because my new screen's quite small and I couldn't see anything properly if I have more than one thing up anyway :'(
Always full screen!!!!!

I always maximise
Depends what I'm doing. Like Matt I have two screens so even when I snap things to the side, it's still big enough to work with! :)
mmmmm i spose so for my web browser I never maximise word documents though
Rarely, I like to swap between Windows quite often so I rarely ever maximise.
maximise everything but skype
Yeah I maximize everything lol
I always have things maximised.
If I don't maximise my windows it really bugs me, I've half and halfed with Skype and YouTube before, but anything else is just aggro.
No only thing that'll take up a screen is games other than that it's floating about/half a screen.
Yes, unless I'm working, then I'll have the split screen in half for my writing program and my PDF program for example.
no I don't like to maximize anything lmao I always have bits showing.
mine right now

Not anymore. My screens are configured by Nvidia drivers to behave like a single screen (Better for watching videos / playing games) so if I maximise I end up with one window over three different screens.
Everything gets maximized unless im doing work, im which case i snap my browser and word.
yeah i maximize everything it bugs me if i dont :( unless im doing assignments and i need google up that's only time!
Most of the time yes. When I first got my mac I didn't because the screen had so much more space than my pc beforehand, and when I needed another page open I'd use my laptop - still do that occasionally, helped when doing rare values work instead of switching between windows :P. But most of the time, maximize. On my laptop, definitely.
For stuff I'm working on for a long time like browser or photoshop if I'm actually gonna do some work then yeah maximise because then I have more space to work in obv but Skype I have small and sometimes I make the browser smaller and push it to the side so I can play Champsionship Manager 2001 at the same time
on my laptop I'll usually maximise my browser unless a chat is active in which case I make it horizontally shorter and put the chat on the side
on my desktop the two screens is enough to fit pretty much everything since I'll have Skype, aim etc in smaller boxes on my secondary
wots aim?Quote:

it's good because you can see everything that's been said in it even if you haven't been logged in all day
it's just better than Skype, group convos on Facebook etc
i like how it works, has embedding on pictures and videos you link etc
ohhhh i recognise it by the logo now.Quote:

Always maximize except if in need for two pages then I will put half-half but still covering all the screen xD
