Honestly I don't like that at all, sorry.
The transparant background may look nice when no windows are open but when there are, it looks very cheap.
What I prefer is a background image ( not-transparant ) and it should fit the GTK theme.
I attached a screenshot of my panel. I don't want ubuntu to have a black panel, its just to show you what I mean with a nice panel that fits the GTK theme.

Translucent is lovely.  My only concern while twiddling with
it here at home is that it is difficult to get _all_
of the interface elements to abide by the rules.


It is a very simple tweak, and I think we can get it in for
Edgy assuming our workhorse Frank manages to push it to
bzr.

Right now however, there is _one_ amateur looking element --
certain buttons on the panel need to have the default translucency
adjusted to bring them more in line with the rest of the panel.

I have attached a small JPG to illustrate the problem.

Does anyone know how to adjust this value and in what
resource file it is?  Dennis?  ;)


Sincerely,
TJS
