After removing unwanted stuff from my toolbar I'm left with a blank line. Can I get ris of this? It would reduce the size of my toolbar and provide bigger screen.

If it is the bar immediately above the tabs and you have not installed other toolbars, like Google, Yahoo, Roboform, etc., that is the Bookmarks Toolbar where you usually see "Most Visited", "Recent Tags", "Recently Bookmarked" and bookmarks that you have added to that bar. You can have it not display if you choose; View > Toolbars, un-check Bookmarks Toolbar. Re-checking it will bring it back.

If you temporarily want to see the full screen with no Toolbars and no tabs, as when watching a video in full screen in Firefox, use Full Screen Mode. F11 turns Full Screen Mode on and off. Just tap F11 once, all bars (Title Bar, Menu Bar, Navigation Toobar, Bookmarks Toolbar and any toolbars you have installed) will "slide" off the screen. Tap F11 once again and the bars reappear.
