nope, not possible because transparency like that is not supported by Messenger.

It might be possible to make the skin without transparency/glass, but yeah if you were after the glass effect then its not going to happen.

*on a side note that wasn't a real screenshot, it was a fake someone made a while ago.

Ive never seen that one on dA, i'm pretty sure that one was an april fools or some sort of joke on crystalxp a while ago. The deviantart mockup you are probably thinking of is this one:

I do kind of have a plan to get that sort of effect though. I'll see once I finish the Life of Vista update...which I have yet to start...seeing I haven't skinned for like 3 weeks...
