Transparent Toolbar

Hi all
I have spent a while trawling the net and I can't seem to find a way to make the toolbar (where it has my pic and status) transparent. There are lots of options for contact list etc. I don't want to collapse the toolbar, just to be able to adjust the opacity.

Thanks!
S.

Adium does not provide this functionality. There are some utilities that companies like Unsanity provide that do this sort of thing.

Ok, they seem to have that exact thing.
Thanks!

If you don't want to spend 20$ for windowshade, you can try a little freeware, SetAlphaValue. Works great with adium.

Hey thanks for that.
I went with the WindowShade option as it just seemed a little more stable. It is only $10 bucks now rather than twenty. After your link I also found another option for others to try called "Afloat."
Sorry but I don't know how to insert the link here but it is easy to find on a google search.
