Hey all. I'm wondering about the possible inclusion of special effects
such as drop shadows and other forms of transparency in Ubuntu artwork
(themes). Does anybody know whether this is a planned feature for Edgy?
I'm asking because I personally will be designing my mock-ups way
differently if it is possible. I think that it would definitely have
an impact on artwork. I want to keep capabilities in mind, afterall.
Maybe this is best off being asked on Ubuntu-devel, so I'll send it
there too.

Unfortunately, due to it's incomparability with most older systems, it
is not included in Dapper or Edgy by default, but there is this neat
thing you can get over the Universe repository called XGL.

From what I hear, it's the coolest thing ever! It's a composite
manager, and it even can be paired up with its dedicated window manager
called Compiz, which can add Vista like effects and more to your Ubuntu
Linux system!

p.s. It doesn't work with that many older video cards, my main Windows
system could use it off this live CD which had it and it has a gForce 4
Embedded video card and it worked!
