Patch's Compact RuneWatch edit:
Here a modified RuneWatch LUA file, this is how you get it to work..
RuneWatch -> Gui -> Skins -> Full.lua
It replaces your Full.lua file, you might want to just rename the original in case you want to use it again.. then take your Artwork folder and rename the files named "Shared" and "Skin-Full".. Just add a hyphen or something behind the names so you can re enable them whenever you need to. So the folder will look like this:
--Shared
--Skin-Full
Widget-Runes
Once you load the game select the 'Full' skin (Not compact) and it should look like this: http://i37.tinypic.com/288tjls.jpg
Not as pretty but it's much more compact giving you only what you need.
Here's the edited LUA file: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=49abeb662ad6b96fd2db6fb9a8902bda
