I've used Chatter for a very long time but it turns out I needed it for only a few options. I'm looking for something more simple. I just want to be able to remove the buttons on the side of the default chat box and change the font.

Start here! I think it's probably one of those.

You sure?
nChat is a easy one, so is PhanxChat. ncChat is awsum, but requires some more effort for the details.

You could just use a hack script to hide the appropriate frames for your first one. Not sure how to go about changing the font though...

After some experimentation, I decided not to use any chat addons. I'm trying to keep as much of the default UI as possible because I don't want to become too reliant on them. I really appreciate the help though, thanks!

If you're trying to keep your UI as stock as possible you probably don't need a chat mod. Got a screen shot of your UI?

Actually, after spending time reading through the UI forum, I decided to change my mind
again
and try to customize my UI, haha! I will probably end up using Chatter again since they say it's more lightweight than Prat. My goal for the chat box is to remove the buttons, scroll with the mouse wheel, and change its font. I'll post up a screenie of my UI (before I added in all the new addons) as soon as I get home :)

Well, if you looked through that list, I'm pretty sure there are chat mods that do just those things without the other features.

I looked through that list briefly and tried Prat since I've never tried that one before. I'll be more thorough when I get home since now I want to really try to customize everything. Thank you for the list :)
I highly recommend
BasicChatMods
and
Low Memory Chat
. Chatter is a beast compared to those two.
I will give both of those a try tonight. LMC looks pretty good! It looks like it doesn't allow custom fonts so I may have to use Fontain? After trying it last night, I don't like Fontain :(

If you want something lighter than Chatter, Prat is not the addon you're looking for.

If you want to be super light, your best bet is to get Hack and start learning how to write your own little scripts to do things like change the font on your chat box without a mod. You could combine that with the button removal et al and not have to get a mod at all.
