Clipper is wasting space and not resizing properly

Clipper is nearly the new G+!
It's wasting precious space not showing anything.
Going further, it sometimes spaces images to a really small size, the next moment it places a huge 200x200 picture. This is insane!

Please consider not wasting space, but rather using if for something useful! For example, showing the path of the file that is in the clipboard.

Also, make everything to have more or less the same size. I really don't big 200x200 images taking 70% of the space in the UI of clipper.

Yeah, the fact that klipper likes to resize images to fit the width of the popup, produces ridiculous results for small images. Here's how it looks for me after copying a 16x16 px icon:

As a first small improvement I suggest removing the indentation of the "Search" field, i.e. so that the search field is aligned left along with "Clipboard". Can we agree on this?

Just a small reminder. While I'm confident this feedback is well-intentioned, please try to keep the tone respectful, constructive and positive. Remember when calling things "insane!" and "ridiculous" you are talking about people's hard work. I can't imagine very many people that I know personally would feel motivated to do this or any work when they hear their hard work referred to as "insane" or "ridiculous". These are real, people who have put their precious time and energy into something many of us benefit from. Please try to be respectful of other people's work, even when providing suggestions for improvement. :-)

Sorry for the interruption. Please, carry on!
