I think what would fix it is if you went light to dark with the gradient, not dark to light. Dark to light intuitively represents a shadow, and since new wave does this, it makes the titlebar look like its behind the window, not on the same level as the window. Making it the opposite would solve this. Of course, this is my opinion, and I'm a fan of the Dust theme, so take it with a grain of salt. ;) Smartboy
