Edit: Looked closer at the background, thought I'd note that I currently have that set as my desktop background :D.

Thank you ^_^. I am not to sure if I can include the background I am currently using, since it isn't my property. I can't remember where I found it either... deviantart probably tho.

The code I have changed to make the layout look as it doesn't isn't THAT extensive, but still, making it 9.0 ready most likely wont be added until the 9.0 final (but I'll see what happens :P).

Thank you :). I explained on the first page how I did the transparent buddy list I am pretty sure.

And yeah argb with 0,0,0,0 is the same as being entirely transparent (invisible). It's really only the first 0 that determines how visible something is. argb = alpha, red, green, blue. The rgb mix together to create any color you could want. The a determines its transparency. The higher the number, the more opaque (visible) it is, and the lower the number, the more transparent it is with 0 being completely invisible.

I guess I didn't explain fully on the first page anyways lol.

Anywhooo...

Open up the 1001 Style file and search for the following:
Element[ID=Atom(ai558)]

You should see a background entry. Change it to the following:
Background:argb(128,255,255,255);

Do the same for:
Element[ID=Atom(ai559)]


That should work for you. I think that's all I did to make it transparent.

I tried this one here and didn't work, but i already did it, thanks anyway! =)

now i need to put that contact search transparent the same way...it's the last thing to update from version 1.0 to 1.1...

Edit: i found out how to do it, and explained in a new thread, you forgot to mention the ai550 and the border colors...thats waht was missing
