I have been using gnome fallback for more than a year, but recently I have come across this image:
enter image description here



However, when in virtual machine (new copy of ubuntu 12.04) I change to gnome 3 shell, the desktop is not even similar to the one in the photo above. I am wondering if there are others things that I am missing/have to do....to get to the same thing (or similar) that you can see in the image above.



NOTE: Here is a screenshot from the virtual machine after I used these commands:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gnome-shell


ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 Launchpad logo (Click here for instructions on using PPAs.)



enter image description here

You have to install VirtualBox Guest Additions in order to use Gnome Shell. There is no need to add any PPAs. Gnome Shell is in Ubuntu. But it requires hardware accelerated graphics, which isn't available until you install the Guest Additions.
