Is there a RGB value for "clear?"

[Sephiroth_IX]

When i have a desktop wallpaper up, the names of the Recycle Bin etc are on a plain blue background (of the words, then the wallpaper is grey.)

I want to make this clear, so the words just appear on the wallpaper. I know i can change the colors, but nothing seems to fit. I just want it clear.

Any ideas?

BUMP!

 

I dont think that there is a transparent RGB value for Windows icons text. That's set by the alpha channel stuff, which I don't think Windows icons supports.

The only explanation that would be remotely acceptable as an excuse for dennilfloss's color scheme is color blindness!

RGB value for clear? heh.. think about the question for just a second. Can you mix different levels of Red, Green, and Blue to get clear? Of course not.. like the others say, you need an alpha channel for transparency.

Hey ND - did i get your attention? I rest my case.

LMAO! Dennis... Are you messin' with us?

Those are my real colours and I like them. What is wrong with yellowish font on a tasteful green 3D object? :|

Would this be better?
