Quick post on this, I'm pretty sure more people run into the same problem.. Usually the first thing I do after opening a new gnome-terminal is resizing so it doesn't overlap over others or vice-versa. Or if I have a big screen, or know that I'll need really long terminals (or tall ones) and so on.. Anyway, resizing all the time becomes kinda annoying, so I've added the following option to the gnome-panel icon for opening a new terminal:

gnome-terminal --geometry=80x52

Thanks! :)

To add to this, I have this on my gnome panel for gnome-terminal:

gnome-terminal --geometry 200x30+0+0

Where the +0+0 is the location on your screen when it opens
