I guess it's just a subjective thing then. I like the fact that it is
contained, though I can see the prob if viewing at anything higher than
1024x768. The windows could be made resizeable but can it be fixed to be
proportional resizing?

plus, the 'relative window size' script that Branden shared with us could be
utilised to create a window based on the visitors monitor.

but my main consideration with new windows is the design control, plus the
fact that, as you said, it helps 'fixing the resolution for raster-heavy
SWFs' *and* heavy vector animated SWF's.

is it such a pain? (not a gripe but a genuine question)
