Yes, I do. My Mom told me it would keep them from fading out so fast. I don't really know for sure, but she's my mom. LOL

To prevent fading, turn them inside out to wash (and dry). This reduces the amount of abrasion that can happen during washing. Wash in warm water and dry on a low setting.
Since dark colors tend to bleed, wash separately the first few times. Never wash more than four pairs of jeans at a time. Too much heavy fabric in one load can damage the washer.

I wash my jeans with tide for cold water and fabric softner., I wash them in cold, and here's the kicker, hang them to dry. the dryer fades them as well.
I personally hang a lot of things to dry, jeans, dress pants, dress shirts, it makes your clothes last longer and you don't have to iron them if you use fabric softner. I just hang them in the bathroom and turn on the fan. My clothes are usually dry by the next morning. I pay to do my laundry so this saves money as well.

NO, i never knew you should. I mean, i suppose it will reduce fadeing of jeans. I guess i just never thaught about it. But you should always wash jeans with just jeans becuase they can bleed (have blue wash on other cloths)

Yes. That's what my jean labels say to do. I think it does make a difference. Especially if they're jeans you really, really like to wear.

Yes, it keeps where on them down, as long as there isn't a really bad stain. If there is, leave it right side out because the stain will be more likely to come out that way.

Yes, I do, in order to prevent to fade the color of jeans away.

Only if your jeans have some sort of extra "decor" on them (i.e. sequins, jewels of some sort, etc), then it's a good idea. For regular jeans, I don't think it's neccessary.

Not usually. I have a few pairs with sequins and beading, and I do turn those inside out.

The real dark tinted ones.
If not then when you take them out of the dryer they"ll have white streaks on them.
