While you're at it, you could add the cube too, I think it uses 3D too :)

yeah.. having a cube like in compiz would be amazing.. I'm really missing it... but before this can be added I think that the overall performance of kwin-composite must be improved... at least on my ATI X700 with the latest fglrx it's unbearable slow :-(
but nonetheless: great work kde guys!

    I've been toying for a while with the idea of having a KWin Effect Competition with a small cash award as the prize and the Oxygen guys as judges. It might prove burdensome for Seli, Rivo and the Oxygen fellows, though :(

      I think that's a great idea - I would definitely donate a little cash towards it. I think there should be a competition for plasmoids as well though, it would help the kde 4 desktop reach feature parity with 3.5 a lot quicker and also help encourage much of the innovation we have been hearing a lot about.

Yes!! Please port the rest of compiz over to Kwin.

I REALLY miss the effects.

Cube, expose, coverflow, among others.

Please:

At the very least make parity to the effects and speed compiz fusion has. At the best add speed and add original effects.

People love the effects. I hope in the future they will be turned on by default if the system is capable of handling them. (distro's are you listening?)
