Hey there, everyone!
After having read the following thread which drifted into browser resizing ( http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=4237 ), I began to wonder about my own site. I have it set up to display so that when it first loads it's perfectly framed and sized and it doesn't interfere with the task bar. Still, do you suppose I'm losing a lot of visitors right away due to my site's resizing properties? BTW, I went a lot of miles to make it work perfectly.
Please check the way it initially loads.. I would really appreciate your oppinions.

Thanks in advance.

When I checked out your site everything loaded fast and displayed well (including the stationary) except for the "Chat" link, that was very slow.

Browser: IE6
Monitor: 17" flat screen, 800x600

You can't interfere with the task bar anyway - only fullscreen windows cover the task bar.


I find it annoying, because if I close that window and then open another window, it opens at the big size, which is not what I want - that's the annoying thing about auto-resize - it changes the default window size

i don't think you're losing too many visitors because of it, but you're not doing yourself any favors with it, either. i think you'll find that the site looks just as good ( and it does look pretty good, by the way ) without it, as it does with it.
