Completely Transparent Contact List?

what are you talking about? iChat? Adium? Address book?

Open preferences, and then go to "appearance"
there's a slider that lets you chose the opacity of the contacts list.

Try going to the adium xtras page and search for transparent or something.

Why not just close the Contact List? I mean if you have it at 0% opacity then you won't be able to see the list. I'd imagine this is kinda why the 5% limit is there.

Click to expand...

The names stay black, but it means the list edges fade into the background.

I haven't had much luck with this (but I'd like to do it). I find the text shadows of the names go all horrid.



The first is how I usually have it, as a compromise. The second is 0% opacity but the text outlines are hideous. The third is 100% opacity. The text looks great, but then on a coloured background this would be a white square.

(The contacts are grey because no-one's online, they're usually black. Johnny No-mates, me....)

This is how mine looks at 5% opacity.



Im using the 'Its A Dock' theme, and 'Simple Desktop Layout', both from adiumxtras. Window style is set to borderless window.

Ooooooohhhh. Gotcha.

Not a bad idea. I'll see if I can figure something out.
