"so it can ONLY take a regulated 5v"
Or 3 AA batteries...
Or a 3.7V LiPo battery for 3.3V/8MHz operation...
sorry.. correct. 'up to' 
still there is no voltage regulator..so you must watch that it doesnt go over the max rating of 5v..
if you want to run at 8MHz.. you'll need to change out the 16MHz resonator as well.

Hi.
Could you please send me the schematics and board design if possible
@xl97 that is a cool board. If you're sharing the schematics I'd love to get a copy as well.
Thanks in advance.

Is it the functionality you want 'gone'.. or just simply a smaller footprint of the 'Arduino board/brain'?Maybe using a different/smaller Arduino circuit will help?
something like this perhaps:
Please can you send me the link for these
Ideally i think this is the one that im needing
How about this one: Arduino Pro Mini for sale | eBay
Under $4 for a small-footprint Mega328 device with voltage regulator, etc. It's simply not worth making your own these days...

Totally agree with that.
If you must have a m328 then get one
of the arduino minis or nanos.
The nano might be better in this case for a few dollars more

as the OP said he used all the pins and the nano brings out the A4 and A5 pins (plus A6 & A7)
to the dip pins along the side.
Plus the nano can connect directly to a USB connector power and
programming.
The Anatools.com one IS NOT MINE (as mentioned)..
I dont have the schematic to share.....
I posed a link to the site however.. where he DOES share the schematic (dont recall if a .brd file is there?.. or just an image of the schematic)
as for the one I made/home etched (with the voltage regulator on-board)..... why? as mentioned, now-a-days you can get a real one mini/nano for $4.00 or so..
much cheaper and easier.
