I was thinking about getting a site done with the Full Page View when open. Just wondering what some of you thought as far as adding this?? I personally kind of like it but looking for some outside opinions as well. Ups and downs to doing this maybe??
Got a tip for us?

Full Page Option?

I would say make it optional at most...and don't default to it. My personal feeling is that behavior like that should be controlled by the browserI say, never seize control of their browser unless you have a damn good reason. In other words, let the user decide. Forcing a page to open full screen is jarring and may be an annoyance to some users, whereas NOT implementing this behavior would have no negative repercussions.
I feel like part of a good user experience (which is what this is all about) involves empowering users and avoiding unexpected outcomes. Plus websites that open full screen feel outdated and have associations for me with SPAM popups, porno sites and sketchy adsthings like that.
Good luck making a decision that is right for your (and the user's) needs.

I concur with this opinion! Do NOT mess with my windows. I have them set the size they are for a reason!!
