Ooh, having some stock avatars would be very much appreciated! I just don't seem to be very creative about these things!

If I had more time, I'd have put a faint transparency effect on the windows. In fact, I'm gonna work on that now :P

But I'd love to offer it up for people, or maybe to offer it to the web site, perhaps cleaning a series of Prius or Prius part pictures (how about a Toyota logo or a steering wheel or MFD or something) people could choose from?

might be the OS or visual settings. transparencies are the first to go if one selects the "performance" option in the system settings. also a major diff in appearances bet xp and vista (so im told, i have glanced at vista and didnt see a whole lot to crow about...)

How about add tinted windows? Black would look awesome with tint.

It looks great on Firefox version 2.0 on XP, but in IE 6 the transparent color doesn't quite match the background color (you have to look close to see it, but it's more of an aqua blue, at least on my Samsung LCD display). I definitely don't see any raggedy edges. If I remember, I'll try this out on Mac Safari and IE 7 on XP at home.

That's really interesting, because the transparent pixels are set to 100% transparent (technically opacity is set to zero); and PNG is a well-supported, standardized format.

Weird.
