Make Windows transparent for free with Glass2K.
So why would you want to make windows transparent, well put simply productivity. It works expecally well when viewing an image, be that photos or video, since the colours are less likely to blend with what you are doing on top. With text it becomes a little harder although it is trivial to decrease the transparency which allows you to easily to which peice of text is on top. Surprisingly this program is actually compatible with Windows Vista even though it was programmed for Windows 2000 and Windows XP . Performance wise it runs well although this is to be expected since it was written with much weaker computers in find vesus what we have today. In fact it stays at around three percent of my AMD 940 and uses 1.6MB of RAM. All together the productivity gains are comparable to getting a second monitor, if not a bit nicer since everything is kept in one field of view and Glass2K is free to boot!
