Aero Glass Color Cycling Windows Vista Applications

This will cycle Aero Glass’s color over a period of time. I have my colors cycling right now, and dwm.exe’s CPU usage is only hovering at 1-3%, up from 0-1%.
If you have a laptop, and noticed that when transparency shuts off, it looks like crap, you can also set this to go to a different color than normal when on battery…..Or even set it up so that the color is based on your battery life. (The screenshot doesn’t show it, but I added another checkbox for this option.)

When you pick the battery-life-remaining option:
0-7% is red
7-40% is a transition from red to yellow
40-90% is a transition from yellow to green
90%+ is green
