So, you downloaded a theme from compiz.org that wasn't an emerald theme? Is emerald able to use other kinds of theme-sets?

That's an emerald theme - the theme name is "euh" and no, emerald will only use emerald themes.

I used to always run compiz and emerald:

My main purpose was to use the mouse wheel to switch desktops -- a data entry help when copying information from images into a database.

But in the past year I have been satisfied with the kwin cube effect -- it gives me the same capability, so I don't bother with compiz any more.

What were your impressions and experiences using compiz in kde, dibl? Was it more trouble than just sticking with kwin?
