Well the size is mainly determined not by pictures but because this game has 
LOTS of messages and , well we need to put them somewhere. (Stats, fight 
message, chat message, inventory, ground, etc).

By the way, the resolution of my PDA is 480x480, that's not enough to play.

Just one more useless message i post to mailing list :p

      that's an acceptable solution in the long term.
     
     
  Note that there are also options for the client to scale down the size of
 the images - this can help a bit also - especially for the inventory and
 look window, where the spacing is really determined by the size of the
 images.

      possible, we should have a client that runs in 640x480!
     
     
  all relative I suppose - it seems that basically any new laptop will have
 at least 1024x768, with higher resolution being available.

  The problem gets into the target - a client that runs/looks nice on 800x600
may not look or be all that efficient on higher resolution systems.

      be reasonable to expect new installations to even have gtk1.
     
     
  I'm working on it slowly.  My main motivation was to have a client that
completely used glade2 for the gui design elements, so that down the road, it
will be much easier to add new menus and whatever else.  Progess is whenever
 I have time to do so, which basically means when I'm not busy with something
 else.
