to answer your question "Who needs Windows7" I want to give you the answer: nobody!! I am off Windows since nearly two years now, and I don't want Windows back!! I love Ubuntu too much!!!
So I would say: Microsoft - game over!!!
Windows never again!!!
Greetings

1. Start the nautilus file browser (double click computer).
2. select edit -> preferences
3. select Views tab
4. Change icon view defaults to 66% (looks about right on my screen). the drawback is that there aren't a lot of scaling choices here. I also set my list view defaults to get smaller fonts on my menu whilst I was here.
Thats it.

Apparently the MD5 hash of the file downloaded is 40dfdf22eea5b83d89bf18fc1129057b
What is yours ?
(to get it, for instance if the file FILE_NAME is in /home/user_name/desktop just open a terminal and enter this :
Quote:md5sum /home/user_name/desktop/FILE_NAME

A semi-transparent 48px hight PNG file, in this screenshot.
The issue is that when you set alpha-blur effets on with compiz, and tell the panel to have a picture background, and set the panel to transparency with compiz, the blur effect is weird : there is a copy of the background upon the png panel...
well I have made recently a better PNG file to use within a gtk theme, which is waaaaay better. To be release in an forthcoming GTK theme

...OK I will cheat on my therapy by beginning with you instead of my psychanalyst...
I just want to show that Linux CAN stand up to what most basic Windows users could say at first sight (well..what even I said on my time) : Buuuuaaahhh !! how ugly is it compared to Windows.. it must sucks.
The most effective way to get people to know your OS as any other product is to appeal them. Linux is so beaten in this battle, and it would be so unfair it remains like this.
Unfair not to say stupid. Lets break a taboo : YEAH, the appearance matters.

In fact you perfectly managed to install the theme, so if ever you are thinking about the blur effect, try to set on alpha-blur effect on in emerald (parameter independant from the theme) then turn on the compiz alpah blur on, choosing gaussian method.

I've just downloaded your emerald theme, and it seems to look very very nice !
But I couldn't get the "Semi Transparency" effect on the title bar to work... =( It looks fully transparent but there is not the opaque effect..
Are there any settings in emerald manager or compiz manager to work on ?
Thanks a lot for this theme ! =)
Cheers from Belgium

First, in the Emerald parameters tab, set the "emerald blur effect" ("type de flous" in french version) to "every decoration" --I think it is like that, in fr. version it says "toutes les décorations"--
Then in the Compiz settings, put on the Blur effects, by default it is applied on "any" window, and select "Gaussian blur". It should work fine then.
Enjoy !

Mmh, gaussian blur is a very CPU eater.. Not recommended for low-end computers.. =)
But the effect looks very nice.. !
Many thanks again !

After playing with the parameters in Compiz Manager, I've found some settings to reduce the CPU using =)
In the "Focus Blur Match" line, replace :
toolbar | menu | utility | normal | dialog | modaldialog
by
utility | normal | dialog | modaldialog
I couldn't see any visual changes.. excepted that it's smoother... ;-)
The change is very usefool if you use the "Flip" effect in the Shift extension (feuilleter dans sélecteur en cascade), or Gnomenu.
Of course, you're free to try some changes on your own ! =)
