OS:                Linux

The Kopete chat window with only the conversation and input panes needs a bit of brush-up, IMHO. The frame around the window should be a bit thicker, and the divider between the panes be a bit flatter.

Compare these two images for reference -

The pidgin window feels more appealing to me.

It does not seem to be a style issue (I tried several), I could be wrong though.

Probably this is a kde style issue, not strictly related to kopete (imho).
Could a kopete dev confirm this?

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
