Very cool indeed. We should use a couple of those for the visual guide. Some
minor comments though:
- Use the default color / widget theme
- preferably, use compositing
The videos are a bit choppy. I assume it's recordmydesktop? In that case, you
can increase the FPS a bit (I've set it to 25 and it became a lot smoother,
i.e. you actually get to see some animations...)
