i feel like i've seen a topic similar to this around the forums, but my searches were mostly irrelevant.

is it possible to implement a transparency feature for the message window? i'm not too tech savy as far as code goes, so i don't even know if this is allowable in OS X, but i would have some use for such a feature, and there are some nice message styles that would look very cool with a transparent background. if not i'm sure i could just take some drugs and pretend.

Has been mentioned many times, and was, at least before 10.3.9 and 10.4 came out, a limitation of WebKit, which powers both Safari and Adium's message views.

However, now that Dashboard is out, I'm no longer positive to whether or not it supports it, so I won't immediately lock this thread. Anyone?

well if you have the debug menu activated in safari you can allow transparent windows if thats what you mean

yeah, it might be possible now, not quite sure, as Wengero said you can set windows to be transparent when the page in blank.
