That doesn't sound correct! If you've chosen the LARGE cams option, then bottom 3rd of your screen should be reserved for displaying cams (1/4 for MEDIUM cams and 1/5 for SMALL cams). There's room for 4 (1 Active and 3 docked). Since you don't seem to be site supporters, you'll only be able to display one Active Cam.

The Option - to View Full Screen. Would be a Nice option.. just like you get on them free sites that you chat to vanilla family via their webcams etc....

We totally Understand - with server costs etc..

We can Chat via webcam with Distant family in far away Places for hours..

Usually with full screen Webcam...

Costs us Nothing...

In chat, you can choose Small, Medium or Large cams, depending on how much of your screen you want the cams to be.

If "large" isn't big enough for you, you can always ask cammers for their Skype address, then you can have 100% of screen dedicated to their cam.

A non-supporter can select LARGE cams, but will only get a single cam. The "Enlarge Cam" function isn't available.

Pressing control and plus will increase font and item sizes on any webpage, it works with the cams however they will pixelate as you aren't increasing resolution but it will give you bigger cams!

On the reverse of that control and minus reduces everything on the page.

Once you've launched a chatroom, underneath the window where the chat text appears is a panel where the cams appear.

Click the first cam you want to view, and it appears in the buttom left of this panel ("Active cam"). Above the cam is a small green right-pointing arrow ("Dock cam"). Click this and a second version of the cam appers to the right of the first version.

Click the next cam you want to view, it appears in the bottom left, and use the green right-pointing arrow to dock in next to the first.

Do the same for the third cam you want to view, and you will then have 3 cams "docked", appearing in a line under the chat text.

You can then click a 4th cam, and leave it in the bottom left ("active cam") window.

It costs nothing as only two of you are doing it. If you use Skype and want a conference call it costs money. Apart from anything else it's not "free" as although you might not be paying for it, someone is.
