Long legged girls unite! Do you cross them? At the knees or the ankles? Prop up your feet on something? Splay them out and hit the back wall of the desk/cubicle?
For reals this is my issue right now. Things could be worse, but I'd prefer to reduce hip/knee pain...

I do all those things. My office is usually freezing and nobody can see my feet, so I keep slippers underneath and will sometimes sit cross legged with a blanket over my legs. I have to rotate positions a lot because I get the knee/hip pain too.
Constantly move mine around so they don't get tight or stiff the best thing is to get up and walk around every so often.
Crossing your legs is actually really bad for your lower back, as my chiropractor will attest to...
Prop em up on the computer tower, if you have one sitting under your desk. My legs are propped up on mine right now. My legs are short, though.
I’m constantly moving my legs around under the desk. But the best thing to do is get up every half hour or so (it can be hard to remember, sometimes I zone out getting super into my work) and stretch your legs. Walk to the bathroom, grab some water, whatever.
