Getting rid of certain parts of the adium message window

[sagrr]

Adium currently looks like the attached picture for me right now.

I'd like to get rid of the top of the message window (where is says "sagar" in this case)

Also, if possible, I'd like to turn the text entry box black with white text. I don't think any of this is possible, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

I se what your going for, well as far as removing the name bit, I believe it's possible by making your own skin thing for adium but I really don't have any experience in that area. as for changing the text thing, I think that is in the adium core so you'll either have to find that file , edit it and re-build adium or just leave it as it is. of course I could be wrong so if anyone feels like correcting me please do as I'm kind of interested about this myself

hm.. thanks for the response. I don't think anything can be done with the theming. I noticed that none of the posted themes have accomplished this (well, the ones I looked at.. and I looked at a lot). If someone can help me through this, it would be great. If not, no big deal..
