So, I've been using KDE again for the past few days, and I must say, that I'm impressed. It's definitely gotten slicker, and smoother while I've been in the GNOME camp.
Unfortunately, a couple of weird graphical bugs, and the fact that it's evolved into something completely knew since 3, which is what I used when I started out with Linux, is making me want to return to GNOME.
However, I've fallen in love with my Kopete. It's very slick, and supports more things than Pidgin. However, I want to use Pidgin when I'm using GNOME, because it fits in with the environment better (Kopete looks like a sore thumb).
Anyway, I was wondering if there was any way that I could end up getting Pidgin to function a little more like Kopete (Graphical chats with themes), and not have to use Kopete (in addition to looking out of place in GNOME, Kopete tends to waste a lot of screen real estate in my opinion).
Could I just get Kopete to work with my GTK theme?
