A Request to all Web Designers in the World
Hey you, the guy putting together MegaCorp's new website. I've got a request. Can you make it so that your site doesn't resize my browser windows to display whatever flash enabled crap you're loading up?

After spam and pop ups this is among the most irritating hassle online. How could you think you know better than I do what size I want the browser window to be? And blowing it up to full screen is the fastest way I know of to get me to click away from your site and go check out your competitors.

Don't think you know better than me, ask me if I want to change the screen size for a better viewing experience. Don't ever assume you can do whatever you want with my browser because all it does is drive me the other way at high speed.

Yeah, you can get back to your donut, cold pizza and 2 liter bottle of Pepsi breakfast now.
