  I would remove the user image and the text representation. Make the window title bar bigger. Just leave it blank.

  For the projector idea, I am a bit split, because my experience tells me that in most cases people are just adding another monitor and not a projector, except when they are presenting in front of an audience. Adding an extra monitor is a more common situation than a presentation IMHO. Therefore, I wonder if you could provide an alternative design where you have a screen representation instead of a projector? Just to see the contrast.
