Background pic
I have selected a pic as background, but is very hard to see. How do you adjust transparency settings. I am running AO2, preinstalled

Thanks in advance for the help

But the quality of the wallpaper will be much worse and contain alot of noise if you set it through the pictuer viewer.

Use the Theme Generator.
Just download the free Microsoft Theme Generator. It works perfectly fine for all the tweaking of themes, including your background images. The only thing that doesn't work on it has to do with Window Mobile 2003 devices---you can't load the theme you worked on directly to your PocketPC. But that's not a big deal...just manually copy the file to your PocketPC via the ActiveSync explorer. I've had plenty of cases where I downloaded a theme and felt the background image wasn't translucent enough or the font colors, etc. were bogus. Theme Generator did a fine job.
