I agree - the hardest thing is going to be to ensure APPROPRIATE use of transparency, rather than slathering it all over the desktop like cheap perfume :-). That's why I would like use to build a team of experts in this area who can try various options and deliver the best:I have the feeling that transparency will meet with the same fate as the flash intro. Now, it is cool and fun but it has plenty of drawbacks. Disregarding their resource hungriness, they diminish text legibility and in general make the desktop look more chaotic and disorganized as really is. Probably, during the course of time the effect will find its way into the general scheme of things, whatever it might turn out to be. Similarly to the flash that ultimately ended up as a web advertising tool. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020535.html Mark |
