I hope I didn't offend by that comment. It wasn't intended that way. Between the colors and the size I just don't like that window (I know I can re-size it but my screen can only handle so much without blocking my view). I much prefer the default window. I can't explain why really.
No offense taken. I was just curious about your statement.

You can make any of Carbonites windows as transparent as you want to make them and you can easily change the color scheme to just about anything you want.

Personally, I keep my quest watch near the top center of my screen (and locked), have it set to use a "fixed size window", is always minimized unless I want to check what's next on the list, and everything is transparent (except the colored buttons on the header) unless moused over. All easily done in Carbonites options window along with adjustments you can make in the quest watch menu that you get from right clicking the unlocked Quest Watch window header.

Please click the images for a larger version (may open in a new browser window or tab).

I highly suggest you go to your "Path to your WoW folder\Interface\AddOns\Carbonite\" folder and read the "CarboniteReadMe" plain text file. It will explain a lot about what Carbonite does and how to set it up.
