For the text colour, tried 30,30,60, which gives a blue/grey, bit clearer than straight black, which was too harsh, it co-ordinates quite well with the background colour of the screens and the yellow highlighted text, it will do for me.

As I understand the game better, I am making more use of the info and report boxes. It is really good to be able to quickly scan through all your units and spot supply, or strength problems, then from the screen, be able to select the problem unit on the map to fix. This definitely is a very good game. Using the renaming feature, I can add notes to unit names (Andrea Doria in dock) so as I scan the list, I can quickly see what tasks are left over from the last turn, magic.[:)]

I've made a semi-transparent background, text kept as is. Make a backup of the "GUI" file before replacing it.

That's great. Can you do the same for the fleet, unit/deploy, and commander windows?

Here you go. This will make most of the in game windows semi-transparent. To complete the look for the fleet screen, you'll have to move or delete all the ship pictures in the "Units images" folder and add the 6 .png files (#40-45) to that folder.

The last one was still pretty opaque, so I've done another one that's much more transparent.

I like the previous one that is more opaque, it makes it easy to read the text and you are able to see through still. Good work.

This one is serves perfectly to see through, but still to be able to read the text easily. Thanks again.
