Alright.[For xanga] I was wondering how can I have a background as a picture of a band, then where the blog is, have that be semi transparent; so you can still see the picture, but it's not showing up as much as the other part.

I was also curious as to where I could find a xanga layout tutorial, so I could actually make a decent one.

Thanks in advace! :)

You are in the xanga forum, isn't this post in the xanga forum, or am I just completly messed up? anyways, the code for that is
table.blogbody {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
filter: alpha (opacity=60, finishopacity=60, style=1);
width:400px;
border: 1px solid #000000;}

Haha, ok. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I didn't think it was in the xanga forum. Oh well :)

Just for Firefox users... Because some of you might wana know... To get this working in firefox you need to use percentages...

IE

opacity: .6

So it looks like:

table.blogbody {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
filter: alpha (opacity=60, finishopacity=60, style=1);
width:400px;
opacity: .6;
border: 1px solid #000000;}
