[SOLVED] Pidgin UI Hacking (Now with screenshot =] )

I was unsure where to post this, but I want to remove the top toolbar on Pidgin, the Font: Insert : Smile bar on the conversation window, and the icon next to the status bar.  Is that possible, outside of editing it out of the source?

Well at least one out of three is easy, in the conversation window just go to Options and unclick "Show Formatting Toolbars," that will get rid of the Font: Insert: Smile stuff.

Thanks! =]

Now just to remove that stupid icon... I wouldn't mind editing the size of that thing.  That away button and all is huge.

Ok I was getting tired of the menu coming up everytime I went near the top, so I edited the Buddy List Option source and recompiled it.  =]

Now, I'm going to bind hiding/unhiding it to a key.

Actually or just not.. I can just edit the xml files if I need to change an option or something.. =/ I sort of like the minimalism that this offers anyway.

The sexiness::
