I'm working on panoramics where I want the loading bar to be a cylinder filing up. If I have it on it's side, I can get the effect. But I can't get the bar to grow upwards - only right. Probably a simple thing, but I can't find it. Also, the background image for the skin. I've tried PNG with an alpha channel and a JPG. Either way, the final loader is showing up at about 75% opacity, even though I have it set to 100%. Because of that the loading bar looks pretty bad when placed behind a non-rectangular object. I really want the background on the skin to be 100% opaque.

Any suggestions?
