Brad's mockup is much more resolved than the above New Wave test, though i liked Francois' original mockup just fine. i'd like to see an implementation as-close-as-possible to what was in Francois' original New Wave mockup (min/max/close titlebar icons included!) and take it from there with adaptations where necessary (ideally after testing it).. what i am most worried about is the early dependence on Compiz.. do drop shadows really matter? i know Cory disagrees here but shouldn't you complete a theme without Compiz dependence and then work toward it as an extra? i teach with Ubuntu on a regular basis at university and in several cultural centres: one of the first things i do is turn Compiz off as it simply doesn't play nicely when one is programming 3D graphics applications (a topic i often teach). keep up the good work, -- julian oliver http://julianoliver.com http://selectparks.net messages containing HTML will not be read. -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
