Ok, sorry for the delay. I did as you asked, I took one screenshot
using medium compiz settings. and one using extra compiz settings.
Although the medium seemed to have visably less tearing when i moved
my windows around, the screenshots still are completely distorted.

http://i43.tinypic.com/35lrfpd.png  (extra settings, slow movement)

I might later try to record video of monitor and check for tearing,
just to confirm this isn't some printscreen glitch.
