You can change the size of applets using simple HTML properties, you can -certainly- use them offline, yet have the ABILITY to play them through a browser (wherever and whenever you wish, mind you).

Jars are cross platform and are no harder to run than a web start, if you really wish to have the fullscreen stuff.

With a web start app, what if I want to archive it on a CD? What if I want to give it to a friend? Your .jnlp only works until the hosted app is removed from the web. -Completely- useless, IMO.
