I like to have a conky bar above my windows in openbox , first i did this with transparancy but now i wanted to put a color as background. Now i have the problem that the height of conky is too big, look at the screenshot

I tried to set the maxium_width and minumum_size but that didnt help. took some one's conky config but that didnt work either. Here is my conkyrc

own_window_colour 333333
# Use double buffering (reduce flicker)
double_buffer yes
# Font, spacing
use_spacer left #Adds spaces around certain objects to stop them from moving other things around. (left, right, and none. monofonts only.)
use_xft yes
# xftfont bauhaust:pixelsize=10
xftfont M+ 1mn:pixelsize=10
draw_outline no # amplify text?
draw_borders no
uppercase no
# Update interval in seconds
update_interval 1.0
# Minimum size of text area
minimum_size 2560
# Maximum Width
maximum_width 2560
# Draw shades?

Try border_marin 0 and comment minimum_size and maximum_width
You might consider changing own_window_type to desktop

What happens if you remove everything after TEXT?
If that reduces the height, try re-adding the different variables until you find the one stretching out the window.
If removing them doesn't change anything,, well... um... *scratches head and waits for someone else to reply*.
*edit*
In no one comes up with a solution, reset it to transparency then use gimp or imagemagick to edit a copy of your background image
