Watching Disrupted's Abstractc-Alpha skin (BTW, nice work Disrupted) reminded me of bitmaps alpha transparency support in K-Meleon 1.5.3.
Just out of curiosity I decided to transform the bitmaps of my Klassic skin & privacy bar accordingly.
That was an easy step and after a few minutes I was done for testing.
Everything was just fine except a minor disfigurement:
I noticed the same disfigurement in Disrupted's Abstractc-Alpha skin as well.
My question, is this a glitch or a design shortcoming?
I think alpha transparency is enabled only for toolbars an not supported yet by bmpmenus plugin (not updated yet).

The worst day of my life.
I feel like a GIF archive.
Thanks for clarification!
Just tested again the new AuraAlpha skin from KM 1.7alpha1 on my ancient win98se, copied over to KM 1.5.4:
Although in the skin folder, when opened with an image program, all the backgrounds look black (perhaps my viewer setting?), the skin transparency has gotten much better now!
Only exchanged the background, sorry, but that appaling gray is just too horrible for my color-loving girls eyes, that destroys the most beautiful skin
Anyway, the rest is all default!
* The Bookmarks/Favorites/Hotlist images produce a black skin background always, also in dropdown menus
* The find buttons at the bottom are black too. This in the "large" skin. Actually in the "small" skin folder they are still the old pink.
* The other MENU icons are all transparent, looking really pretty!
* The 8 buttons in the middle of the second row still show a black background, but only when hovering the mouse over them
* The privacy toolbar is transparent, just has no text
And there's just a slight "magic black" on the rounder icons, but guess that's the least worry of us win98 users ;-)
