I am working on transparent styles.
I changed a bit on prosilver_ip blue, so you can see the transparent background (except for the posts, to keep them clear and white hehe)
Here you can see a few examples:
Ownage Windows: http://www.ownageworld.com/index.php?s=6
Ownage Twist: http://www.ownageworld.com/index.php?s=10
Ownage Earth: http://www.ownageworld.com/index.php?s=11
Ownage Games (Ghost Recon): http://www.ownageworld.com/index.php?s=12

Work to do:
1. Removing corners on header and navbar
2. Need a new logo (mine sucks, I know, but I just hate photoshop...hehe)
3. Like the wordcloud is unclear because it uses wrong backgrounds. Need to fix it :p
4. More? Feedback? Please!
5. Got wallpapers that would be perfect to create a style with? Past the link here please! I will create a different style with it. I prefer light wallpapers, as they look better on bigger screens!

Other feedback (positive and negative) would be welcome!

When I fixed all disturbing things, I will bring out the style, everyone can just totally change uploading 2 images. At least, if people are interested of course!

fantastic, brilliant a great job ...

just one thing (not bad) why not make the background image not fixed on the themes... then as you scroll down the image will move with you...

great work though...

That was my original idea!
But when I made some background images fixed, it was really slow with scrolling on most computers.
This is because, the transparent body part of the website has to "adjust" whole the time.
And if I only make a fixed background, it looks weird if someone scrolls, as the original picture is messed up.

So this is more a safe solution hehe.

Thanks for the positive feedback!

[Offtopic @ Dwho: just updated to RC2, and trying to make MPSmod work again! Did you by any chance take a look into the activity mod?]

Very true I forgot about the pngs slowing the site down I think there was a fix for that somewhere but could take a while to hunt it down

I will work on mps as soon as latest release comes out.. I cannot see any real issues with rc2 as yet... so gonna wait till I hear problems...

I totally forgot about the activity mod and have not had a lot of time to do much recently .sorry

Wow... really a good job.

There is some unreadable text in some tables, but overall you did a great job.

I hope you'll release them, I think may users will like those styles.
