Although no "bits and pieces" are showing, the following are probably NSFW. Caveat Emptor.
(The links connect to thumbnails of the images just in case. Click the thumbnail for the full image.)

Clean
Busy

Fluxbox - trivial theme from tenr.de
Audacious - Almond Dark Blue skin from gnome-look.org
Gkrellm - modified Glass theme.
Mist - GTK and icon themes.
Wallpaper - randomly selected from a collection of over 50,000. Vida Guerra in this case. (sexydesktop.co.uk)

do people actually work with all that compositing on, or is it just for taking screenshots? I enabled compositing once in the xfce preferences, and it slowed everything down to a crawl. I didn't even bother installing all the compiz stuff or whatever because it's just too slow.

I have an athlon 3200+ and a radeon 128mb 9600 -- is that just too slow? do you need like dual core and a $900 video card to run this stuff?

Same card here, and yes compositing is slow. but its mostly because ati sucks. kde4's compositing is slow tho, but compiz was once really fast in fact. So guess it will be usable when both ati drivers and the kde4 code improve.

okay, I guess I'll just wait a while then.

here's my non-composited xfce4.

Yeah, compositing runs quite nice here. It is rock stable and blazing fast, my gfx card is a cheap nvidia fx7600, maybe nvidia drivers are just better.

is that the xfce4 compositor, or the one enabled in xorg.conf? or do those enable the same thing?

It is just compiz fusion from the repos. Hardware support has to be enabled in xorg.conf.

Compositing is indeed very useful, it can drastically improve performance. If it _would_ be done right.
Which it isnt. Because the CPU still has to draw many things. Once the GPU will render ALL of the desktop it will be bliss.

Ah, and good drivers, but thats a different story...

Yup compositing runs great on my amd 4200 x2 and nvidia 7600gt.
