Compact Gwibber theme for the Eee PC

I love Gwibber, but its default theme is not overly Eee PC friendly/efficient; the message boxes and fonts are just a little too big for my liking.  So, I have been working on a new compact theme for use with CrunchEee. The new theme is basically a hack of the default theme, see the images below to compare the default theme against the new compact theme:

Gwibber with default theme:

Gwibber with compact theme:

Download and install
The theme is available as a tarball and can be downloaded from:
http://corenominal.org/misc/cruncheee-g … eme.tar.gz
MD5SUM: 1c7eab6dba4810f760f1143fed57fe0d

To install the theme, simply extract into ~/.local/share/gwibber/ui/themes/ and then select the theme from Gwibber's preferences screen. I hope someone finds this useful.

Nice work! I had actually started something similar. Now, I think I'll just remove the stripy background from yours and use that.
Thanks.
