That looks so oldish.

http://www.xnetz.com/alertwindow.gif is not very cool, but at least it looks modern.

No. Not modern, plain ugly.

I'm sure there is a sane looking wm that doesn't hide the text. vm2 is an always an old favourite.

You and Zino have totally destryed your sence for beauty by looking at too much anime and Roxen webpages.

I really don't care, but http://mc.pp.se/alertwindow.gif looks like plastic crap. And the text "Alert" is hidden on in.

And what does this look like? URL:http://os.amiga.com/images/os4/Screen3_P3.png

Marcus' image looks like a boring window manager for an expensive computer system. Your image looks like a the second attempt by a newbie demo graphics dude. Once being a demo graphics dude myself, I estimate that he has 10-15 attempts to go before he has something that looks both cool and serious.

Like someone with no taste gor hold of a MUI settings file.

If you resize it so that it says something other than "A.." I think this is the best one.

But it might be confusing, since it's without a titlebar.

No, twm is not cooler than twm. Not even in the same configuration. :)

(Running the test program with /pike/sw/bin/pike on pelix caused a core dump, but it worked with a 7.5 from last week.)

/ Leif Stensson, Lysator

Urgh. Pale green on black. That's even a lot worse than the white-on-cyan default settings. Which in turn isn't nearly as nice as my white-on-dark-red. :-)

But you had a different set of colours and choice of icons, to be honest; http://docs.roxen.com/pike/7.0/tutorial/hello/window.xml shows the original shot.

/ Johan Sundström (a hugging punishment!)

Now it gets difficult. Which one is the best, yours or Mirars...

My contribution: http://david.hedbor.org/tmp/hello.png

/ David Hedbor

I guess my judgement is clouded by my delusion that alerts should look like alerts and not windows.

I think Davids wins since it shows the text och looks like a window, not a widget.

/ Peter Bortas

I don't even have to start X to know how that one is likely to look.
