But I achieved what I wanted to do and that was to make it completely transparent.

I really like the transparency and the background image showing through the forum.  It gives it a cool feel - like a kind of depth.  I also like the colors.  Not crazy about the font size, though and things seem a bit squished toward the right side of the screen, but all in all I really like it.

You might want to try taking out the font-family, and font-size tag for all the css classes, including the anchor tags (links)..

then try changing the body tag something like this:

BODY, TABLE, TR, TD, DIV { FONT-FAMILY:VERDANA, TAHOMA, SANS-SERIF; FONT-SIZE:10PT; }

yep - I like it better with the full width - actually (and now I'm just being picky!) I would like it better with a bit of a margin on each side.

I do think the font size is just too big - I like a smaller font.  I'm viewing it on a Windows computer with both Firefox and IE.  I don't know what it looks like on Mac - sounds like Macs might display text smaller (I think I read that in another post).

Have you tried fixing the background image so the text "floats" over it?  With this theme it might give a cool effect (kind of spacey)- though it might conflict with some of the text, depending on the color and all.

All in all, excellent theme!

It looks good... do you take more suggestions?  Maybe try changing the anchor tags to this:

A, A:LINK, A:ACTIVE, A:VISITED { COLOR:#F0DF87; TEXT-DECORATION:NONE; }
A:HOVER { COLOR:#A78B11; TEXT-DECORATION:UNDERLINE; }

yep - very nice!

One more suggestion (again, just being picky - I blame my mother for this!).  Your images that show if there is a new post in a board are a little too similar to the regular image.  In a forum with a lot of boards, it seems like it would be good to have those fairly obvious because users might will be scrolling through quickly to find the new posts.

Ok, I'm done now - It looks really cool.

It pushes the limits of what can be achieved, it's unique and to finish, it's a credit to your abilty and imagination warlock.
