Maybe Microsoft will change this in Windows 7?
I prefer the transparency to be without the blur also.

The blur is there for usability (so you can read and make out the title, etc).
But it would be nice to be able to control that aspect. |

The titlebar is readable when the whole glass is transparent because there is a white-ish glow around the text in the title bar This is also proven with the VistaGlass visual style. |

Unfortunately, I no longer have the link saved on my new laptop, otherwise I would have linked it, but I think it was on devaintArt... I'll search around for you & see if I can find out where I got it from & link it

I already found a VistaGlass :
http://vistastyle.wordpress.com/2007/06/09/vistaglass/ (by mr.google) but it have a problem found in other VS's too : it links the windows transparency to the taskbar and start menu too. I'd like to have them more transparent, too, but this causes readability problems on certain backgrounds, since they have no glow for text. I need just a VS thats Aero only with these mods : - no blur - change toolbar/menubar color (see near topic) - transparency when maximized (already done with vistaglazz) I would like others too but seems a bit to complicated for now. |

I saw that theme. That doesn't remove the blur. It only removes the fog and reflections. |

Thank you for finding it again for me & yes, that is a problem with Vista Glass - the taskbar & start menu do not look good on white (or some light) backgrounds. I prefer darker backgrounds anyway

I prefer darker backgrounds anyway  And the concept of that fixes that issue. Though it hasn't been done in a theme like that. Only one so far is the one in the picture. Though that theme doesn't get rid of the blur as some of you have been saying. Just the fog and reflections  Which is **** easy.

Thank you for the info Panda X - I didn't think about being able to do that. Someone now needs to contact the VistaGlass maker & ask him to implement this
