Interesting ScreenShot Review!

A little suggestion:
Why this so flat aspect? Why don't enable compositemanager and drop shadows?

"Metacity won’t give 3D effects on the same level as Compiz, but it’s much faster and less resource-intensive."


run this to enable compositing and drop shadow
gconftool-2 -s '/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager' --type bool true

and this command to disable it:
gconftool-2 -s '/apps/metacity/general/compositing_manager' --type bool false


bye, NicCo

Here are some other ISOs with the GNOME FREE Edition

With the FREE term we mean that:
these ISO images were built only with /main and /contrib repo without /non-free, /restricted or any external,
so don't contain any codecs, drivers, or other software or IP with possible license issues in some Countries.

It's not a safe behaviour changing path and/or links announced in the official Blog / Forums, it's rather confusing...

Searching around, I have found a direct folder to those ISOs,
at least I think are those (the ISOs were announced 08 August, and the date of these ISOs is 07 August,)
