Maybe a font problem? The author possibly stipulated a smaller font to
get the GUI to fit on his screen, and you don't have that font in your
path, and are getting a larger font instead.
Or, maybe the author wrote the GUI to fill his 1280x1024 screen, and
you're running
at something smaller, like 1024x768?
So the easy fix might be just to increase your screen resolution.
Failing that,
email the author...
