Could the folders get a lil’ ubuntu logo?

This is the current icon theme I’m using: http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/7164/screenshot1kr9.png

I don’t know the name of it, but I like the branding.

Yes. Definitely ways better than the current Ubuntu icons. I definitely love the trash icon. The current (8.04) one is really ugly.

Correction, radeon, nor radepi.

Medium is still too skewed for very, very, very low-end hardware. I mean my radepi 7500 card (32mb vram) does “Advanced” fine.

I think dodge is pleasing and simplistic enough to be included on Advanced.

I think beam up and burn effects are too much gpu consuming even for an ultimate configuration.

My only suggestion is to include Switcher with the minimal profile. Having an Alt+Tab window switcher is something most people have come to expect in their DE. Some of the middle-ranged profiles should also use Stretch for resizing, as “Normal” tends to be quite C/GPU intensive. (I use Stretch on all of my machines because I find rectangle to be unnatural)

Are you considering adding a selector for Focus animation as well? It would be a useful addition.

- For minimize: Zoom with Minimal (please don’t use Fade at all with minimize since it doesn’t have any visual cues for where the window goes to), maybe also Zoom with Medium, and Sidekick for Advanced.

- For focus (when a selector is implemented): None with Minimal, Fade with Medium/Advanced, and Dodge with Ultimate.

- I don’t recommend Glide 1 for both open and close. You could use Glide 1 for open and Glide 2 for close (I guess that was one of the profiles in Ubuntu).

- You could add wobbly to Advanced.

Also, why do you have normal mode for the resize? Rectangle/stretch look and perform much better…

Also, which focus animation will they be using?
