For one the name Ozone makes me smile. But than I think Ozone looks pretty ugly, pardon me. Still I also need more help with Oxygen to find the active window or recognize that one is passive. What about a coloured outline as indicator, like all focussed widgets have?

I'm ok with changes, and I posted quite a few of possible ones in my blog and we are working on it, If some one shows me a colorable windeco that looks nice and oxygen I would be glad to make that into the oxygen windeco. The fact remains that I dont belive such an visual anser exists (and I have tried several variation).
At the time the intire discucion was about submiting a patch that made and makes the intire windeco a difrent color. Again that is an ok feature but its not oxygen.

    I really really like your suggestion to color the signs in the buttons of active windows:

    Keep up your great artwork!

        Your artwork is great and you are the creators of oxygen, meaning you guys have to make the decisions.

        Don't listen to the anal people, i work with oxygen for some time mow and I had no problems with active/inactive windows.

        Keep it up, you rule!

          Who's being anal?! Nuno's responses are like Volvo telling me I can't change the front grill on my car because, "we think it should look the way we sold it." Sorry, but it's _my_ car, not Nun^WVolvo's.

            Well, that's the thing... you BOUGHT the Volvo, and Oxygen is GIVEN to you. Contribute or accept it as it is. Sorry, totally anal ;)

              Err... Contribution has been submitted, and it has been accepted by the KWin maintainer, though the name had to be changed due to Nuno not being willing to be associated with the unauthorized change.

              So people can have the Volvo as shipped it, or, if they so prefer, they will be able to change the colour of the bumpers.

        Sounds great, it's probably the thing I dislike most with Oxygen. I've tried to make own buttons for the windeco, but it's really hard to come up something that looks good.

        god idea. the round buttons seem out of place.

        and btw, whoever came up with the default placement of the buttons (no oxygen-guy, i've heard) should be shot.
