Someting wrong with the themes [SOLVED]

Hi!

I just got Ultimate 2.5 installed, along with a few nice features, AWN and themes and stuff like that. Everything was going smooth, until I put the visual effects to maximum. All the themes are strange looking, (see picture link), they got red and some what transparent, If I change it back, and have no visual effects, then the theme works fine. Also, I can't change my cursor, if I change that one, it only appears with the new look in firefox.

is there anything I can do?
I have googled my slef bloody for this, and the forum as well.

thanks

// Martin

Hello and welcome medz ! <BREW> :D Glad to see you here on the forum ! :D OK to me it looks like you have "Emerald" enabled as your window manager, go to Applications > System tools > "Compiz fuzion icon" , Click that, that will put a compiz icon in your task bar, right click that icon , "select window manager">Compiz, "Select window decorator">GTK, Then, "Reload window manager", See if that helps. ;) as for the cursor change you must log out and back in for change to take full effect ! ;) :D I hope I have been of some help ! :ugeek:
