I think he's referring to the blind feature. Don't know if nautilus supports it, but emerald does. Check your emerald settings for bindings and window behaviour.

No wait, never mind, seems I misunderstood the picture. Please be clearer about what you want to achieve.

I think he's trying to minimize them, perhaps the buddy list doesnt show up on toolbar?

you can activate it by... uh.. not sure how to change program behavior with program that isnt made to do config that.. but it is doable.

What I am trying to achieve is, whether I could open two windows and make it look same as those two items. I do not want to minimise them. I mean re-sizing.

Resize? Do you mean you want that window theme? Like the glossy black look?

Put your cursor down to the bottom right hand side of the window in question and the mouse will change. Hold down the mouse button and you will be able to resize the window. If the window is taking up the whole screen, then first go to the top right and click on the middle button, right between the X and the _ buttons.
