I guess where I'm confused is I already have my task bar (or start bar depending on what one calls it) set to be transparent, but it's a flat even transparency. Yours has that nice glossy look.

Taskbar is where you the window list is, on my screenshot it is the bottom, title bar is the topmost bar on windows, where the Minimize, Maximize and Close buttons are. As for the glossyness, it is probably my theme, it is called XNTricity, and I am using GNOME.

I am waiting for the official version of Mint 5, but what extras have you put in there? Is that a standard theme, and is that a new plugin for thunderbird on the right there?

Hey badmotor 2,
Well I added AWN and Emerald. Then downloaded Black-White 2 Gloss icon theme. The downloaded emerald theme is Grey Pearl. I downloaded both the icon and emerald theme from gnome-look.org. The Thunderbird is default from install nothing added.

The thing in the top right is my CPU usage. Or are you talking about the bottom right? That's my graphics card temp.

I'm not sure I can trust the temperature it gives me for my CPU, it usually says around 10C. But every hardware monitor I've tried (Both on Windows and Linux) gives me the same results so I'm not sure. My processor does use "Cool n Quiet" and is underclocked by almost 1 GHz most of the time so maybe that's why?

You may very well be right. I certainly haven't found one that's better. :)

Definitely not - unless you have freezing temperatures in your room
(Can of course not be below room temperature :))
