Hi all,
I'm trying to make gusty look nicer, and have just got around to sorting out the cube, or the lack of. It's a pyramid with no desktop on the top or bottom (Normal?)
Took a vid with my phone (Encoding problems with vlc so had to :()
Youtube Vid (http://www.youtube.com/v/ubbi74M9iTY) (Sorry about the AWFUL quality)

So what i want to do:
-Make it a cube
-Add a background for when it rotates
-Get a dock running (AWN doesn't seem to work :(, though help with it would be good)

Also, what is a standart win XP's charset?
And what is ubuntu's (gusty) - is it ascii?

Yes it is normal not to have a desktop on the top and bottom.
To get a different number of desktops goto System->Prefrences->CompizConfig Settings Manager.
Under the General Tab go to Desktop size and change the Horizontal Size.

If you don't have the CCSM, you can find it in add/remove.
