Transparent background but not Text?

[kelemvor]

Howdy,
I'm putting my menu on the left side and I have a border running down that side. I want the border to show through completely so it looks like the menu is actually part of that border. If I set the Opacity to 0 it makes the entire menu transparent. I want jsut the background to be transparent (or to just not be a background). Can I do this somehow?

If not, can I have the background for the main menu be a graphic and have no background for the sub menus?

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks,
--Mike

Any luck on this? I have a slick graphic that goes across the top and I want it to bend towards the left side and put my menus "on top" of the graphic.

Thanks,
Chad

I just set the background to nothing. I was at an older version when I tried the first time and it didn't work. Then I got 3.4.whatever and it works fine.
