 * Hi,
 * I’m using a Pinboard theme, and already made a transparent (text) png logo. I’m
   still trying to find the best size for my header. This is not the problem.
 * I’ve been searching the web for houres to find a CSS code to make the header 
   transparent.
 * [Here](http://woutervansashorecaservices.nl) is my site.
 * These are all the Custom CSS codes I filled in. The last 2 codes I filled in 
   I saw on other sites and it should work… :

               filter:alpha(opacity=40);*/ /* For IE8 and earlier */
       }

       	margin-top: 0px;

 * Hi!
    Did you ever figure that out? Anyone did? I have the same issue. I’m using
   a PNG transparent image and is still doesn’t show transparent. Instead it has
   a greyish background.
