    As far as I could see the main uses of my background images are (1) to make
    emacs look really cool (and it does do that),

If it is easy and painless, I have nothing against it.

						  and (2) to provide a better
    answer for the constant `can I make emacs transparent' questions on usenet.

What does "transparent" mean in this context?
