Are there window animations for Mac like Compiz Fusion?

I don’t think so, otherwise you could be sure it’d be hyped up to death on Digg.com . Just look at the hype surrounding Compiz Fusion, then combine that with the hype surrounding anything Apple…

And in any case, I doubt something that expansive (especially considering CF’s plugin architecture) could be written in a non-open source fashion – and in the end, open source works best on Linux.

You could hope for someone someday porting it to OS X, but then again, that’d require X.org or whatever and in general would be a lot of work I think, and not as stable as CF (which already isn’t the stablest software).

what is compiz fusion?

@Bi_L – Compiz Fusion provides your operating system with a lot of spiffy 3D effects (Windows Vista’s “Flip 3D” and Mac OS X’s “Cover Flow” are nothing compared to it). There’s lots of videos demonstrating it. Every effect is provided by its own plugin, and new plugins are developed at a rapid pace.

However, if you don’t know what it is you most likely can’t run it, because it is made for Linux distributions (operating systems that share a certain core called “Linux”), and about everybody who uses a Linux distribution knows about CF.

@Vincentt–Thanks! I looked at some of the demos. Wow. Cool stuff. Thanks much!

@Bri_L – it’s cool indeed, I’m running it myself (though with moderate effects ;-).
