[link] Turn Windows Into "ghost" Windows

i ran over this program tonight, thought i would share... i'll let the website speak for itself

"Ghost windows are very special windows. First of all, a ghost window is translucent, meaning you can see through it to whatever is underneath. Secondly, a ghost window will always appear on top of other windows. Thirdly, when a ghost window loses the input focus, it remains translucent and always on top, but all clicks will pass right through it like it wasn't even there—until it becomes the active window again."

"...you can configure the Active Window transparency, and the Inactive Window transparency..."

"No installation is necessary, Extract GhostIt.exe to a directory of your choice, and run it. To remove Ghost-It! from your computer, delete GhostIt.exe. It does use the registry to store its configuration options, but only if you change them from their defaults."

it's a few years old, latest was released in '02.

it's interesting, i don't think i'm going to continue using it since the little system tray ghost freaks the hell out of me everytime i look at it.

sorry, i just changed him so he's prettier and less scary now. i drew in some contact lenses.

(thanks seph... i wish we had it the older way where you can pick from the choices of the type of thread, and it was mandatory...)

Dude i am just kidding. As a matter of fact its unique to you unlike some avatar that look alike and you cant make a difference. ;)
