In your case you could turn it into a cool GUI design in this way: If the user wants to "start the application" pixie, it should start with an empty GUI (to be conform with most other desktop apps). If the user "starts a picture" (maybe by a click on file in konqueror), it could/(should)/may start the picture widget without GUI. As it is currently.
