tinydAmn by `electricnet has been suggested a few times by various people and it's easy to see why. This script is brilliant for those with lower resolution screens or for anyone who just likes having that bit more space to chat.

Description

tinydAmn allows you to take full use of your screen estate, and is especially useful when you're on a low screen resolution. If you've ever tried using dAmn on a low resolution (800x600 or perhaps even lower), you'd know that it's not always easy as pie. Often times there are not room for many posts and if the chatroom has a huge-ass topic or title, it may even be possible that you can't see the chatroom at all.

What tinydAmn does:
:bulletred: Removes margins
:bulletred: Shrinks font size to make room for more posts
:bulletred: Shrinks tabs to make room for more in the same space
:bulletred: Minimizes chatroom-related links in the bottom right (with added tooltips)
:bulletred: Adds functionality to shrink entire topic+title and userlist at once!!

tinydAmn removes most of the margins and paddings around dAmn, while still retaining all the functionality and even adding new functionality. For example, you can still see all your messages and use the popup menus at the top, tinydAmn won't stop you from doing any of this. But here comes the awesome part: It'll add a new feature that shrinks the topic+title and userlist so you can focus on the chat. Granted, it's probably a good idea you read the topic and title in a room, but if you've already done so, it's kinda annoying having them there when you don't really need them. So just click the arrow in the top right and they're gone! When the userlist is shrunk, you can still see the members by mouseovering the visible part of their username, and the information about the user, including the full username will pop out as normal. To show the topic etc. again, simply click the arrow again!

Of course you don't have to have a low resolution to use this. You can also use it if you just want your dAmn to be a bit more slim and compact. ;)

:pointr::pointr: Click here to install tinydAmn! :pointl::pointl:

Requires Mozilla Firefox and the Greasemonkey extension. If you have this, and have dAmn open while installing, reload it to finish the installation.

There is a known bug that it might not initialize correctly and you end up with a look that's half tinydAmn and half ordinary dAmn (or simply with a big margin at the bottom). This only happens once in a while and to fix this, simply type /clear (or /join another chatroom). Easy, huh?

Thanks go to =miksago for helping me with some code when I was stuck and =Caektiems for constantly testing my scripts.

Edit 2008/04/29: Now works with revised dAmn appearance.

What I dislike is how neither of your extensions use Opera, and only one(?) works for chrome. My Firefox stopped working, and no matter how much I try, I can't seem to get it to work. Even after re-installing.
