1 .. first install compiz extra plugins from software center
2 .. now open CCSM and go to Animation option > in each tab of close/open/minimize animation select all settings to random and increase the duration to the double of the given
3 .. now enable Animations Addon on CCSM

8 .. enable ring switcher...one of the greatest animation of compiz ..set the keybinding to your choice ...set it for next window(all workspace) to mouse button 5 for ur conveniece ...set the previous window(all workspace) to mouse button 4..this two are must and also set the keyboard options for them,,,personally i prefer mouse key bindings...
but be care full on following things
1.. your system may hang while enable /disable different setting,,,be patient and wait for a while to adopt it
@PTontonozi u will get all the themes and icons in "gnome-looks org" with instructions to install them,remember from 11.10 u have to get the gtk+3 themes
and also add the "webupd8 org" themes repository,,they got some cool gnome 3 theme
@Aplifiedproductions you must have proper driver installed to get these compiz effects..as far as i know ati has good driver support from ubuntu ,,try the latest versions of ubuntu like 11.04 or 11.10 to get better driver support,,,after installation if ur driver is not already installed in the system use "additional driver" to search and install the proper supported driver..
if ur driver is already installed the checkit with sysinfo , or system sttings>system info>graphics
in ccsm try following things that i did>>

2 .. you may need to restart or logout login to see the change
3 .. set the key bindings carefully...do not set same keyboard -mouse option for different actions
