When you are in Full screen mode, you can still zoom in and out by clicking the magnify buttons on the games.
I notice for some games, you can’t use the zoom and zoom out with your scroll wheel on the mouse, so it is best to zoom in or out to a comfortable viewing size where you can see the text bubbles, or markers on top of people, houses, and animals before you go into full screen mode. To exit full screen mode, you hit the button again, or press the ESC key on your keyboard. All you have to do is click the Game button in the flash game with two Squares on top of each other to play games in full screen mode. I notice playing flash games which require you to drag the screen or go from one area to another like FarmVille, CityVille, and MMO games where you have a lot of land to explore tend to run faster in Full screen mode instead of Windowed mode since I do not have to drag the screen or zoom out and zoom in as much from one area to another which tends to slow down my computer when changing screens, and zooming out and in the screen. Plus, there are no ads, buttons, graphics on the sidebars, and top of the game when in full screen mode which can make the game slow if the ad is an animated or interactive ads which auto-updates. Google Chrome also has a way to turn-off add-on by going to the wrench icon then go to the tools submenu, and pick extensions which will launch the add-on/extension manager. If you must use Internet Explorer or Firefox to play online flash games or use web apps, you can try uninstalling plug-ins, add-ons and toolbars since they can also use system resources, and make sure Internet Explorer and Firefox is up to date. FireFox 8 seems to run most Flash Games in Facebook on Ubuntu Linux better then Google Chrome for Linux in my experience.
Also, Google Chrome is also less likely to be full of add-ons and toolbars like Firefox or Internet Explorer since typically people who use Google Chrome don’t install as many add-ons and extensions to Google Chrome because Google Chrome has everything you need for browsing and using the internet built-in.Īlthough, FireFox seems to work better for some games and computers since it uses less RAM then Chrome I notice. When I use Internet Explorer to run Farmville, and some other newer flash games, I notice IE uses almost all my RAM, but with Chrome Farmville uses less RAM. In my experience, Google Chrome seems to run Farmville, Fish Isle, Fishville, Blogspot, Youtube, Google Docs, and other websites with applications a lot faster then other web browsers like Internet Explorer 8, and Firefox 3.5. I have visited websites which run slow in Internet Explorer, but run better in Google Chrome. Ever been to a website which load slowly, or have flash, text + picture based games, Java, and php programs like games, and video players run very slow?
