You dont understand that, that image may look cool, however if you have it
on top of other windows the image reaching your brain is confusing...since you will be seeing parts of the window underneath. I have experimented with transparencies since windows 2000 that could make windows transparent...so this makes almost 6 years of experimenting with this. and its more confusing than anything else.... it is also a style that will die off soon. It cannot endure with time. Its a gimmick to sell vista for some hypothetical style, while at the same time they abandoned all real revolutionary technologies.

sorry to hear that your brain can't handle this...
perhaps your 6 years transparency experience isn't enough to realize that in windows vista only the window borders are semitransparent, while the content is not. you are free to turn the glass effects off anyway, so stop crying. hal "MicroFox" <-> wrote in message news:... > You dont understand that, that image may look cool, however if you have it > on top of other windows > the image reaching your brain is confusing...since you will be seeing > parts of the window underneath. > > I have experimented with transparencies since windows 2000 that could make > windows transparent...so this makes almost 6 years of experimenting with > this. > and its more confusing than anything else.... > > it is also a style that will die off soon.

It is not my brain that cant handle it.. but most people get tiered of such
things...and you are stupid. The borders should not be transparent. The borders exist for a reason so that you can separate the contect of the window you are using from all the rest .. if you are making it transparent you might as well remove the borders all together. The result of that would be confusion. I can turn it off.. but there are lots of people who do not know how to do it. Did I mention you are stupid? Just so you can remember.

Hi,
You can actually turn off the transparency of the glass -- it's certainly not a requirement and it still looks nice. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger Associate Expert http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/ Messenger Resources - http://messenger.jonathankay.com All posts unless otherwise specified are (c) 2006 Jonathan Kay.
