as you can see
>HERE< Im using transparent windows as much as possible in os x.. Down-right I've placed my Adium contact-list, which is transparent and black.. I've searched everywhere for a simple, black & transparent, borderless theme.. no icons, just plain text.. Where can I find such a theme? If there is none, I'll rather design one myself, but how can I create transparent windows?
Feedback appreciated

if you mean transparent and/or borderless message windows, they are not possible due to a limitation of the WebKit which is used for rendering message views.

but there are numerous applications for turning your windows translucent.
For instance, WindowShadeX by unsanity, or there is another app that does it, but only for cocoa apps, and it's not as customizable, but i can't think of the name offhand.

WindowShadeX does not do transparency for windows that are not 'minimized' IIRC.

Elaborate please...
I set transparency to occur whenever I double click the window bar, is it 'minimized' then?
