I prefer the first screenshoot, without black borders.

There is still a 1 pixel thick, light grey border. How about making it just dark enough that different windows can be distinguished, but not so dark that it looks too out of place compared with the rest of the theme (as it does in picture 2) – a happy medium?

I like 1 better, but something clean and simple like is even better

the close/max buttons etc stick out a but much… imo

Translucency is not available yet...not until e17 gets its own composition manager. At that point we will be able to do a *lot* more than mere translucency. Problem is, Xrender still sucks.

IMHO, the new one without the BLACK OUTLINE is better. The drop shadow are more visible thus making the default desktop less dark and more “clean & polished”.
Sorry Xcomputerman.

By the way, do you know if the windows decoration can be made transculent ? I mean the border around could be transculent (With the possibility to regulate translucency degree…)

Just a thought anyway…

Keep up the good work !

I prefer the old one, without the borders the windows seen so.. lost, nothing clearly separating each other

I prefer the new one without the black borders. It gives the theme a much softer look.

I find the one without the black border nicer.

I think #1 (without black borders) is better. Gadgets, iconbar, pagers don’t have a black line so I think the windows should have the same style.

I prefer without black borders too. It seems easier to resize windows like this since the cursor doesn’t change yet. Or is it just me ?

I have to say, I prefer without black borders too, though I agree that it doesn’t separate overlapping apps as well. I just think it looks a lot friendlier without.
