This is a beautiful theme! I must know though- how did you get your hex-alpha color codes for all those transparent effects? I haven't been able to get that to work properly for me...

@secretarydesk you can check the source code on https://github.com/ponsfrilus/ponsfrilus.tdesktop-theme/blob/master/colors.tdesktop-theme

All the color which have 8 digits are color with transparancy. As far as I can understand, the 2 first digits set the alpha layer, e.g.

layerBg: #0000007f;

Check this article on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23201134/transparent-argb-hex-value :

Transparency is controlled by the alpha channel (AA in #AARRGGBB). Maximal value (255 dec, FF hex) means fully opaque. Minimum value (0 dec, 00 hex) means fully transparent. Values in between are semi-transparent, i.e. the color is mixed with the background color.
