Something neat I noticed:



Check out the "tiles" on the Wordament tile. They're transparent as well. Neat little touch, and I love the scrolling background stuff.

Yeah, I love the scrolling background, but so many of my Apps dont have theme aware live tiles so ive had to resort to pinning all the system apps to get the effect. I hope developers are quick about updating to 8.1.

...as long as they give you the option to turn off the transparency, if they can. Having all apps be transparent would suck for readability and quick recognition, you'll have a sea of white icons + white text.

That's a good point. Perhaps the best option would be to allow the user to edit live tiles. Like Oblytile for Windows 8.
