 * Hi,
 * is it possible to set page transparency –
    make base color transparent instead
   of white?
 * any hints, links appreciated,
    im using a video background and the template would
   work really well as an navigation overlay if could be set to transparent
 * im happy to find this theme,
    the subtlety of the color change, the rollover 
   functions, the circular graphics quite nice and different than majority of themes

 * Hi there! Yes, you can use [CSS](http://codex.wordpress.org/CSS) in a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   or a [CSS plugin (like Jetpack)](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/jetpack/)
   to do this. I recommend using [Firebug](http://getfirebug.com) for CSS work–makes
   it much easier.
 * Find any elements you want to change with a white background and set to a background-
   color of `rgba(255,255,255,.5)` (adjusting the last number to your desired opacity).
 * ETA: You could also set it to `transparent`, forgot to mention that!
