Thank you for the feedback. 1) It would be nice indeed but the image used for panels could not be stretched due to limitation of Gnome. So I'm using one universal image for top/bottom and all sized panels. If I make a highlight at the top of the image for the bottom panel it would be ugly in the top panel. i think that the panels "stand out" by their darker color and in the same time are usable. 2) This is also a problem with GTK because the text control could not have transparent backgrounds (the white pixels left) thus I'm using the most appropriate color for the control to fit it's usual (light grey or white) background. You cannot see this in clearlooks because the panel is light. Also the pixmap engine is known for not such a great flexibility when it comes to integration and merging of widgets. Probably it is possible to make a exception matching for textboxes in panels but that would not solve the problem on other dark backrounds.
