Default Vista windowses on window and maximized modes

About graphics in Vista:
I was wondering if it's a big bug or not but why when I maximize windowses
in glass mode the transparency of the windows seems to lost in the prosess.

I think it would be a lot of more cooler to have also smaller shadows on
windowses, now they are over big, not thinking about small monitors.

.... lots of other graphical flaws which are in need of fix.

Be sure to use the Microsoft Beta Client to report your bugs. If your
Feedback link does not give you a link to download the bug reporter, you may
download it from
http://windowsbeta.microsoft.com/vis...&build=0&sku=0

As for the maximize Window, if you are describing a Window with a black top,
that is by design.

No, this is not a bug.

This is a design decision Microsoft made based on studies that show killing
the transparency when a windows is maximized is less confusing to users.

After using Vista as my main OS for a month and half, I have grown to like
them
