Wow, really cool. Didn't even know windowshade does all that now. :-D
I thought the minimize window in place was a left out feature from a beta version of MacOS X, which I remember Steve Jobs demo-ing.
I'll give it a try and if it meets my needs, it'll get my $10. I just don't think it's automatic transparency like I wanted it. All windows are automatically transparent except for the active window. I'm sure it's easy for unsantity to add that feature.
Thanks!
