Response to: Translucent Applets?
applets also don't have the desktop as a background but the browser window. At most you'd be able to get transparency to show a background image or colour selected in the containing html file, but IMO anyone using background images for web pages should be shot on sight :) and solid colours can be set in the applet directly as a canvas backgroun colour.
