ITT we discuss modifications to the GTK theme that generally improve/enhance the n900 experience.

I will go first.

Smaller scroll bars!

For a long time it has bugged the crap out of me that full screened GTK applications still have MAHASSOOV scroll bars usurping my precious precious screen space. Full screen EVince, I am looking at YOU!

By changing line 2808 of /usr/share/themes/default/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

from:

Code:
GtkRange::slider_width = 22
to:

Code:
GtkRange::slider_width = 8
We now have much smaller scroll bars. woot! BY my calculation that gives me an extra 17920 pixels for me to look at.
