I use lxde with a tiny "always on top" lxpanel.
I use compiz because:
lxpanel doesn't do true transparency so compiz makes the panel translucent
I like window shadows, but not on tootips
I like translucent menus
I like no window decoration on maximised windows (having set F2 to toggle "window maximize")
I love alt-tab for the "ring switcher" or flicking the pointer to the top left for "scale" (no need for a window list in the panel)
I love flicking the pointer to the bottom right for "expo" to switch virtual desktops

And obviously, you don't use Compiz standalone.
There's a thread for LXDE and for current Screenshots in general

It's getting to be a matter of sematics in my case, I've disabled pcmanfm as the desktop manager and don't use lxde session management, acpid handles power button shutdown and lid close suspend.

I'm new here, just installed Arch this weekend. This is mine:
I was working on setting up terminator to be a wallpaper terminal but I ran into some problems. How do you get compiz to set terminator to stay behind all the other pages? I know it has something to do with windows rules, but I'm not sure how to do it.

@phillyman1025: what are you using for the panel/tray at the top there?
@na12: that's nice. You obviously have a thing for flowers!

Thanks phillyman1025. Well here's mine...
Cairo-dock at the bottom, xfce4-panel (only) at the top (xfce4 is not installed!) and using Conky for the first time with a script I've cobbled together from others. I was a long time Gkrellm user but I'm liking this Conky setup.

Looking rather simple! (still elegant though )
No panels/taskbars?

Yeah idk. I had tint2 going for a bit but couldnt get it to fit in in a way I liked. Besides with compiz's window management plugins I dont need it much.
