dislike the heavy black panel, so that caused me to experiment. I was
surprised, though, at what I found.
On my Mandriva laptop, installing the Naked theme gave me widget
transparency, although the handles still remain black. The panel is
semi-transparent. Overall the look is very pleasing.
On my Fedora 10 netbook, the same theme gives me different results.
Widgets are again transparent, but this time the handles are transparent
too. The panel, however, remains hideously black.
Why does the theme display differently on different distros? Is it
possible to adapt the theme so that I can get a transparent panel?

Hi Anne,
panel is transparent when desktop effects are enabled (4.2. on F10). I like it
how does it look but my friend sent me Vista screenshot - with subject "Vista
copy" and it really looks like copy of Vista's panel...
