Post A Transparent "Board"
Anyone know how to achieve a transparent "board" like in the Kingdom Hearts theme? What image do I make transparent to achieve this? And also unlike the Kingdom Hearts theme, I want the original boarders around the channels so that the channels don't have the hard rectangular shapes. My goal is to see completely through the channels to always see the background image (of course as long as there are no channels). I know how to make the "fuzzing" empty channels to be transparent, but the white that surrounds those still shows up.

due to the tpls that make up the channel borders what your asking isn't possible :(

the tpls cover the corners of the channel gfx has the border and some of the bg transing the bg part would still leave you with the block channel but with a border in the channel

:s don't think i explained that great but hope you understand it
