Advantages:
- uses less resources (mem and cpu)
- (maybe) runs on older Kopetes
Disadvantages:
- cannot lump messages together (a.k.a. continued messages feature), so:
- less sexy
- less compact
- less clean looking
See the second screenshot to know what im talking about.

### Install instructions ###
Installing this style very easy! Below you find several ways to install it... Hopefully one of them is to your likings
## the 'easy' way
Go to Kopete -> Settings -> Configure Kopete -> Appearance -> ChatWindow -> click "Import" button
Fill in this URL for Efficient:
http://kde-look.org/content/download.php?content=26318&id=1
Or this URL for Efficient-single:
http://kde-look.org/content/download.php?content=30386&id=1
click OK, and there it is. To get rid of the shitty name you can 'Copy' it to a different name and then 'Delete' the original.
## the generic way
click the download link on this site and put the file in:
~/.kde/share/apps/kopete/styles/
## the console way (the ruling way)
just copy paste this -- as one line -- to your console and all should work well:
mkdir -p ~/.kde/share/apps/kopete/styles/ && wget http://kde-look.org/content/files/26318-Efficient.xsl -O ~/.kde/share/apps/kopete/styles/Efficient.xsl
## the KNewStuff way
this theme should also be in KNewStuff. if you don't know what that means try one of the above ways
Let me know what you think of it!
And don't forget to VOTE
Cheers!

Thanks! I've just installed it via SSH onto my home computer... :) I've not seen it yet, but it's there.
