I have found a way to get rid of the sidebar background, but I want to lower the opacity only. Does anyone know how to lower the opacity on the sidebar of their Twitter account. I am sure you will have to do some javascript. I used Make your Twitter profile sidebar transparent | Social Media Marketing Consultant Blog (http://www.justinparks.com/twitter-profile-sidebar-transparent/) to get rid of the background but doesn't seem to work to lower the opacity.

Thanks.

You know I hadn't even realized Twitter was giving us that much control over the look of our profiles.

Here's the actual javascript (http://www.justinparks.com/twitter/twitter-sidebar.js) you're running to make the sidebar transparent. The script is just setting the background color of the sidebar to no value so it becomes transparent. Whether or not Twitter gives access to the opacity is another matter. If they do you should be able to use a similar script. It's a matter of finding out whether Twitter gives access to the opacity. It may not be possible at the moment.
