Yes I think I can add this functionality flipse. Since shoutbox is already a block I should be able to add a second block without too much trouble. My suggestion would be to remove the smilies, text entry, and auto-refresh from this new block and replace the pop-up button with a button labeled "Shout". Selecting Shout would generate a new pop-up window that would contain the text entry area. It will take some experimenting to see if I will be able to automatically refresh the message display block while the shout entry pop-up is present.
