Once again: WinAPI UI does NOT support alpha and MaxGUI does not support more than that.
Cocoa (OSX 10.3+) is the only UI beside upcomming KDE4 and Windows vista that supports TRUE ALPHA on regular UI elements
With a 2D desktop you can not use true alpha, it would make it seriously slower! (unusable if you used an alpha based theme)
So once again: Use the transparency masking color for your pixmaps.
