New users, old info:
What is Transparency!? Short answer: a fanart skin. The main goal of Transparency! is showing your fanart, fullscreen, in all of the views, all of the time.
Besides this, it also tries to support every neat new feature xbmc has to offer. To save everyone a lot of time and trouble hacking the xml code themselves,
all of these new features are already included in the skin, pre-configured and enabled by default (wherever possible).
Questions / Problems:
- First thing to do is read the FAQ
- If that leaves your question unanswered, please post it in a new thread.
(please include xbmc version and the plaform you're using. a screenshot and a debug log can be very helpful too!)
Credits:
Thanx to all the translators and bug testers!
Special thanx to everyone submitting feature suggestions!
And last but not least, a big thanx to Jezz_X for the great PM3.HD skin and to everyone who's contributing to XBMC by coding, scripting, designing or just by posting new ideas.
disclaimer:
- third-party builds of Transparency! are not supported by me!

I think most of the folkls are kind pre-occupied with the Eden features and not to mention family time during christmas might have taken precedence.
But I do love the transparency skin and thanks for all your hard work. The kind of support that we get from you is the best I have seen.

I've just updated to the Eden beta (I had to make sure T! was available for Eden before I updated). I'm trying to update T! to 4.0.4 through the xbmc addon system (
Settings > Add-ons > Get Add-ons > XBMC.org Add-ons > Skin > Transparency!), but I keep getting 3.11.7 instead...

Try removing the addon.db in your xbmc userfolder.

Thanks. It's downloading now that I deleted addon.db.

I've been using xbmc for the better part of 6-7 years, so I've had a lot of exposure to it. T! in the past couple years has become how I feel at home using xbmc. There are quite a few amazing skins out there nowadays and they look great, but I can only try them out temporarily as I have to go right back to T!. It's a fantastic skin that accomplishes being minimal yet having all the bells and whistles.

Since upgrading to T! to 4.04 under Eden beta, I'm getting a script error when launching XBMC... Script Failed: RandomItems.py. Any ideas?
