Hi all my spring window starts off fullscreen and within a few seconds of gaming goes to windowed mode and almost always stays in it, it is highly annoying, how can i stop it?

Hi
To stop the Spring window from minimizing. Just disable the visual effects on your OS.
If you don't already know how to do it then follow these steps. This is you to do it in Ubuntu.
1. Right click on the desktop and choose change desktop background
2. Click on the visual effects tab and set the visual effects on none.

Indeed it is.
Im using a Gtk 2.x theme now with no effects on. And spring works fine with it. So of you want to style your desktop. Use GTK themes.

compiz provides a completely smooth desktop experience
metacity provides a choppy one

Unless, of course, you run a 3d application other than compiz
