I don't see what the problem is. Are you reporting a bug in AWN or gnome-panel? |

Yes, I'll mark as gnome-panel. I see what you mean partially, as the application icons have a sort of "fade" to them which makes it harder to spot them quickly.
However in general once you get used to a something you prefer more such as AWN, it is going to be harder going back. Have you tried enabling compositing in metacity? |

Bug #269934 in Ubuntu: "If not using AWN, icons in bottom panel are hard to distinguish" |

description |
I was forced to stop using AWN because of a bug when I have compositioning enabled. I was struck by how hard it was to distinguish between the different applications I had running. I found that many times when switching between apps, it took me many seconds to recognize the right app.
When not using AWN most icons just are grey.
I'm attaching a screenshot of "bottom panel" with AWN and a normal gnome panel. |
