did he really ask that ''which gray'' ? he should look up the meaning for transparent, and i'm not a designer either

pick either color background as the transparency color and it will look fine - the two alternating colored bg colors to the post areas are close enough that it doesnt matter which you choose - or go for a color in between the two.

Notice the quotes "transparent" -- in this case, means "effectively transparent" --

I know. But there's a particular damned design that has a peculiarity whcih won't allow this to work. I haven't made it because I would want it to be perfect -- you know how that is --
