Hi Madeleine,
If setting gsnMaximize = True is creating a plot that is too big, and
you're not happy with the default size of the plot, you can try setting
the various vp resources:

vpWidthF = 0.8 ; width of the plot (within 0->1)
vpXF = .1 ; X-axis starting point in NDC coordinates (range
from 0->1) of left side of plot
vpHeightF = 0.4 ; height of plot (within 0->1)
vpYF = 0.9 ; Y-axis starting point in NDC coordinates (range
from 0->1) of top of plot

Note though that NCL will not change the aspect ratio of your plot
unless you also set mpShapeMode = "FreeAspect", which most people do not
want to do.

So, I would suggest you play around with the above resources until you
are happy with the size of your plot.
Good luck,
Adam
