On my system I use only one gnome panel, at the top of my screen. I have its size set to "Tiny (24 pixels)". In it I have icons to launch some common applications along with the gnome "Main Menu" icon, a mail check applet (set to display either "No mail" or "x messages"), a gnomeicu (ICQ clone) applet, a mixer applet, and a clock. I find that this gives me everything that I need without wasting too much space. I'm running in 1024x768. Have a look at http://www.humbug.net/shot1.png for an example (~100k). I use gnome 1.4 but I don't imagine it would be too drastically different in gnome 2. sam -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL: http://www.fvwm.org/>.
