You *should* be able to grab the the top window manager border (above the 
title), and drag it down -- any *sane* WM will let you resize from any of the 
four borders.  This will "shorten" the window.  *Then* you can drag 
the title bar to move the window up. 

If Metacity (Gnome's window manager), won't let you do that, you can install a 
*sane* window manager that will let you do that (fvwm for example).  Then 
scrap Metacity and use fvwm instead (yes it is possible to do that).
