I've just posted a BottomFeeder update that cleans the UI up. The button bar is gone; all of those options exist in the View menu anyway. The feed icon is banished from the main ui, instead living in the Feed Properties dialog. That also eliminates a background process in the main UI, the one that fetched the image. You get notified of alerts (assuming you've set any) in a part of the status bar now. With all of those cleanups, I moved the rest of the UI to take up all the screen turf - no more wasted space at the top. If you grab this as a dev update, you should not load it on the fly; it's best to restart after grabbing it
