Glass Windows Theme...

This is most probably a very ****ish question... and i consider myself not a ****, i've been here for nearly two years...

But, is it at all possible to have transparent explorer windows, and a transparent taskbar (basically a transparent theme...)

before you flame me for being a dumbass, i'm not talking just making an existing theme *washed out*

im talking making a theme that is basically like the longhorn glass look for yzdock. Transparent centre with shiny glass feel and white edges...

i heard something about the new windowblinds being able to have transparent themes... so is there a longhorn glass theme out yet?

pretty much the best Vista theme out there is by Kol, which you can find here. don't forget that you NEED to have Windowblinds 5 in order to use it properly. if you are looking for a glassy Visual Style with the same quality as that, you wont find one. XP doesn't support lowering the opacity of window elements, so you'll just find things that are transparent, not glassy.

You might want to add that the glass effect DOES NOT lower performance at all, its like using any other theme.
