Re: [opensuse-artwork] OpenSUSE 11.3 Window Decoration Idea
Thanks. :) I'll try and come up with something else for the close button. If anyone has suggestions, let me know but I'll see if i can come up with some different options. Jordan Cran wrote:

I like the concept overall. I think a very thin/fine X is still probably the best way to go. If you want to get away from the traditional X, maybe don't make it so large. I think the window decoration would be especially useful in a netbook with limited vertical space. -- T. J.
