Compiz 0.7.6 is out with a splash. The long tested Full sphere is out in the stable XGL repo and trust me it looks amazing.Though it took a little time for me to find out from where to turn it on. Well u can find it in the “effects” group under the “Cube reflection and deformation” plugin. There under the “Deformation” tab you can chose between the sphere and cylinder or a notmal cube. And if u select sphere and remove the tick from the “Deform caps” and “Cube Atlantis” is on then u will see a very very cute aquarium :) i have added a screen shot with it.

Another thing added is the “Static Switcher” plugin which shows thumbnails of all the open windows and moves caret instead of thumbnails.

One more thing added is the wallpaper plug in.This plugin helps u keep a different wallpaper for each phase of the cube. The only problem with this plug in is that right now Kdesktop doesnt support transperency so u wont be able to see the wallpaper set by compiz. At this point of time you have 3 options — first is that you can kill kdesktop but the problem is you wont be able to see the icons on your desktop. Second option is there is a patch available for transparency support but you will have to re-build kde-base.Third option is that u wait for the changes to come pre-built with the new kde-base :P

These were the differences i noticed n there might be more. If any of u find out, can paste it as a comment to this post :)
