I just installed the Autumn Effect for Compiz-Fusion on my desktop, I found it pretty cool, so I came here to show off in video.

*www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNxc1k2ckRA

how I installed is here -> *ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=616230

For the convenience (if required), I'm attaching the files here too. Enjoy :)

And please do show off if you have something to.

EDIT: I forgot to add, if that command doesn't work(mostly it won't), then do
$sh autumninstall.sh

And about the ragged shaking of the cube in the video, I did it purposely to show non-lag if you know what I mean, i.e.,the effect doesn't make your desktop lag.

Yes it's called Shift-Switcher, you get two options there

1) Cover - which I did in the video
2) Flip - which is like Vista

here am living with no effects, i found ubuntu amusing without any fancy stuff.

Surely the effects are nice way to impress one geek :D

^well,I am mostly on Debian Sid without bells and whistles(read compiz fusion).I find Debian pretty much more responsive than Ubuntu,esp Gnome.

For people who are on later versions of Compiz-fusion and the autumn effect doesn't work, you can try the one at *smspillaz.googlepages.com/Autumn.zip

You might need a restart for it to work properly

If you're having a problem with getting the autumn Plug in installed.Just download a simple leaf texture and apply it to the snow plug in in compiz. I believe it should give you the same results. The problem which you are having seems to be a dependency issue. You do have compiz-fusion working at the moment don't you?

Edit: There was a post above this before but now its not there :D So I was referring to his post.

My Compiz video with me running cod4 in Ubuntu 64 bit. Sorry the resolution isnt better but uploading that itself is a pita.
