It could be used as image rollovers, instead of having seperate images for when you move the mouse over a link, you uts change the opaquicity, it'd save bandwidth, though it probably wouldn't work too well in most cases...
There's plenty of good visual uses for this. I like the "visited" concept myself. I like the ability to lay text over translucently onto another object. Although that loooong article could've been summed up alot quicker.As with anything, tasteful design is the key.
This should be titled "CSS Transparency in Mozilla and IE," not "opacity." Achieving opacity requires... well, no additional work at all. Everything's already opaque.
Specifics would help. It's a long series and could fill a book easy, but it isn't clear how to shorten it. Should the bottom outline be somewhere else? Any feedback is helpful. If anything it is expanding now that Opera supports opacity and I too think it is bulky but in review can see only where more should be added. Help anyone? Break it up into smaller chunks? Bite-size it?
Laughing at that one. Opacity is very simple. I'm searching and searching for the simplicity, the way to make it look simple. Powerful, yet simple. I do like the 10% opacity - 90% transparency. That is an excellent summary. Can you help sum it up in other areas?

Thanks for this. I was wanting to use image rollovers on my redesign, you just saved me some homework.
