Small Windows is really great for open source - my only complaint is that it isn't easily customizable besides editing source code, which will NEVER make it a successful program outside of the people who have favorite sourceforge mirrorsBut it works and that is what's important+digg for people to try it
"Yeah, when I can hit F11 and have everything shoo to the sides in Windows, I'll be thrilled."Try Win-D. It shows your desktop, just without the fancy effects. Hitting it again will restore your desktop to the previous state.
Umm let me get this straight, the applications just dims the other applications in the background? THAT'S IT??? What part of Expose is this supposed to mimic? The shading of the background applications is only used when you look at all the windows of one application. When viewing all the applications this only dims the desktop. If this at least did what F10 does then it would be a useful app, but this is just pointless. Not to mention a unportable .net application.
quit your whining, this guy codes stuff for free. if you dont like it, STFU, and dont download it.personally, i like it. it does mimic expose slightly, just not 100%.

For those of you that are curious, the app itself is around 300 lines of C#.

Why say it again then?

@bearda- it does snap back... there is also an undo option once you've done it once.

I love this app, but I have encountered an issue with it. I have two monitors, and it only dims one of the screens. Is there a quick fix for this?

Boo f**kin' hoo. I think you missed the point.
