How about making a var that is Icon_Opacity.

100 = you can see the icon 100%
50 = you can see the icon 50%
etc...

It could be really usefull, and fun to play with... I know I could use such a var for my code.
BYOND 4.0 (or later. Fingers crossed but anything can change!) will have 32-bin icons with transparancy, so you'll be happy to know BYOND will have transparancy at least at some point in the future.

The people who are doing this are volunteers, they're doing it in their free time. Keep that in mind...

and your point is what exactly? this still does not change the fact that the core BYOND developers all have families and jobs that will take precedence over BYOND.

BYOND Membership fees do not make anywhere enough money for these guys to quit their full-time jobs to work on BYOND regularly.

Not Enough, from what I heard they only make enough to pay for the server.

That's correct, none of the staff are getting anything out of it, at least not yet.
