Doing it with style: bringing more bling to GTK with OpenGL
,----[ Quote
| Müller is currently developing the GDM Face Browser, a new login manager for
| Ubuntu that will include enhanced visual effects and smoothly animated
| transitions. To implement the face browser, he will need to be able to
| seamlessly combine OpenGL and conventional GTK widgets. Existing canvas
| libraries like Pigment and Clutter are certainly robust options for OpenGL
| development, but they do not offer support for the kind of integration that
| he envisions.

GNOME theme engine designer adds transparency to GTK
,----[ Quote ]
| The work that Cimitan has done with the Murrine theme engine since its
| initial creation often demonstrates the power and flexibility of the GTK
| widget toolkit. The Murrine theme engine offers advanced features like
| striped scrollbars and rich gradients. Cimitan says that the addition of
| translucency effects proves that critics of GTK are wrong.

Web designing with Ubuntu
,----[ Quote ]
| As a freelance web designer, I really thought migrating to Ubuntu Linux will
| give me a really hard time. I never thought that Ubuntu Linux has a very good
| graphic design tool that can do what I am doing with Photoshop. Although Gimp
| is still way too different with Photoshop, I still see Gimp as a very
| powerful tool in graphic and web designing. It also possess features that
| Photoshop has.
