Metacity also have a compositor, but the theme should works perfectly without compositor at all.

Hi, > Who said the titlebars should be brown? I didn't say titlebars, this was a comment for the overall theme. I actually like the way New Wave is going on. I guess you read the discussion at #ubuntu-classroom and that you know a bit of sabdfl taste ;) For example : folder icons, highlighting and glow should be brown or orange. About Clear Intrepid : icon set and transparency everywhere remember me Vista Areo !

Re: [ubuntu-art] New Wave Poll
I have a suggestion for the GTK of New Wave. I do not know the technical terms, so I will try to explain as clearly as I can. In a Nautilus window, e.g. http://img399.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mynewwave1hg8.png There is the toolbar, the location bar, the side bar and the area where the folder icons are shown (e.g., Modeli, Musica etc. in the screenshot) which I will call 'folder area' for now. Folder area is surrounded by - what are basically- gray boxes. I was wondering if it is possible to have a 1 pixel border between the gray area and the white color of the folder area. So basically an inverted-reversed-L-shaped 1 px border between the sidebar+the toolbar/location bar area *and* the folder area. I have added a mockup of this change in the link below. http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/2978/mynewwave1hg8borderedgtyg3.png I am not sure if GTK allows for this, but if it does it is very good to have.

I think that if we have the proper orange accents here and there it would be much better than an eye-strain orange line at the top of each window.

Re: [ubuntu-art] New Wave Poll
IMHO this way: http://img172.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=74539_NewWave_test_07_122_995lo.jpg and http://bradwjensen.deviantart.com/art/Ubuntu-Theme-Mockup-Dark-67903127 . It has a very professional look, while keeping the orange.

Re: [ubuntu-art] New Wave Poll
I like the darker theme better, but it may look too hardcore and be tiring for casual users. Tough pick.
