Is there a way to make it "smaller"? It takes up a huge amount of vertical screen space in it's "minimized" form.

I get that it's apparently trendy to make everything hyper-minimal, and in basic colors.. but it's really seriously eye-gouging and just kind of looks like "a bad layout" [the trend, wilia at least using divider lines helps]. Even a color theme wouldn't help this as it's too distracting, like those people you meet that have 50 toolbars in their browser.

..the old one wasn't broken though. Why fix it? It's like the new "editor" which seems to offer less options and break functionality of old stuff.

I'm honestly wanting to "Ad-Block" it entirely, as it's THAT intrusive! This would however minimize site functionality and mean that I'm blocking ads [as that comes by default if i enable it on wikia]
