I thought it was perfect before, now its so opaque that theres no point it in having any transparency. I think it looks worse now, its more of a mistake than an intention like the old transparency. One of the rules to good design is to not make half assed decisions, either make it look intentional or dont do it at all since it will just look like you messed up. The new menu's are bad design.
I would like to change it back, there was nothing wrong with the old transparency, it wasnt noticeable unless you looked for it and it did not reduce legibility at all (seriously, wtf people), it was very opaque and just the right amount of blur so that it was completely impossible to reduce legibility. Now its very difficult to even see that its transparent when looking for it, if you look very closely then there is a very faint showing of whats behind it and it reminds me more of monitor burn-in since its so extremely light and only apparent in high contrast areas.
They should have left it alone, I dont remember a single person bitching about it like they were the transparent menu BAR and 3d dock (I cant believe they didnt include an option to turn this off but they messed with menu transparency). As it is right now it should just be 100% opaque, its using up system resources for crap you cant even see.
