    What should my window design be?

    I was thinking a large slash and a dot with a green light behind it. I want something that isn't just a shape, something nifty. Just throw out some thoughts. http://www.angelfire.com/linux/hopelessromantic/ thats my computer now...

    Anything that's not cliche (insert accent mark) and overused, that's all I would say. Geometric shapes are boring as hell, and game logos only have their lasting effect for so long.

    I'll argue the geometric shapes. The ones used are the rectangles, squares, circles and ovals. You can always do something else that's a geometric shape.

    (last I knew, I was the only one with a window like mine, which is a geometric shape)
