Hi, just so you know, this is a great mod, but ubuntu has an ambiance version with the buttons on the right side

I didn't notice the changes to the buttons... That looks very nice and clean. Personaly, I've removed the buttons. I have assigned some of the buttons on my keyboard to perform those tasks. Pressing a key, is so much faster than having to move your cursor up in the corner. It's a silly win 3.1 idea. that somehow still exists. Imagine that instead of right clicking your mouse. You had to left click and then press a button up in a corner. That would be silly and so is the min. max. close buttons. So, instead of using the ubuntu forums to discuss whether the buttons should be on the right or left. We should discuss whether they should be there at all ! Sorry, Bignono. This has nothing to do with your excellent work. I just wanted to say it.

Bignono

no problem :D

Bignono

Bignono

Bear73

But as you mentioned yourself. That change is made in gconf. !?

Padster

he took out the oval background thing (indent) and made each button have their own small indent.
