  As said previously, I believe the only client that supports this (at least in 
the standard C client distro) is the gtkv2 client in opengl mode.  in SDL mode, 
it may be supported, and if that is the case, I'd expect it to be the same for 
both gtkv2 and gtk (v1) client.  Basic display transpancy certainly is not 
supported.

  For images that do have alpha set in modes that don't support it, the current 
processing is that if that alpha value is 0 (fully transparent) then don't draw 
it, if not fully transparent, we do draw it.  So thus, you could change the 
alpha value of puddles and it should still work just fine - it may just not look 
as good.


  I have no idea about the new java client.
