Description
/* Updates and shit - July 2nd, 2011 */I updated this slightly, and instead of tacking on yet another edit to this already long deviation description, I just decided to kill it all and start over.
So in a nut shell, this will make your |New|Edit| and |pencil| buttons mostly transparent until you hover. So the buttons you see on your userpage widgets will be transparent, along with the pencil button on comments to let you hide them until you hover over them.
This latest update doesn't quite look the same as the preview does here, but you get the added bonus of an animated opacity change instead of the sudden jump from translucent to opaque. Well, at least if you use Firefox 4.0 or above.
To Install
You'll need either Firefox or Chrome , and have the Stylish extension.Firefox Stylish - [link]
Chrome Stylish - [link]
Once you have those, you can open this link and do this, depending on if you use Firefox or Chrome:Firefox - Copy the entire contents of that link into a new blank style from the Stylish menu (click icon -> write new style -> blank style), give it a name, and then hit save.
Chrome - Open that link, but only copy the line starting with "/* make edit/new buttons..." till the last "}" character, but don't copy that last "}". Then in the "Applies to" area, add in a "URLs on the domain" category and write in "deviantart.com".
It's a lot more work in Chrome, but that's another reason Firefox is better
Now this applies to group pages also, so if you have privs there, you might find the small icons on things being transparent annoying, but you can fix that, sorta, if you take out some lines. I haven't been using it on those icons for very long, so I'll see if that's annoying to me. Anyway, hope you all still like this

Nah, they aren't transparent anymore. Because they lost their "New" and "Edit" texts and only show the pencil icons now.

Hmm, not even sure what it's intended to do
Seems it's just some random backgrounds to use however you want.

Yeah, I think everything here [link] works for everyone. Although not everything is a script or style.

Oh Jesus Christ...
That's annoying. I'll get to work on it. Looks like I need to either work on changing the background image or position it better.

You'll get used to that, or you can easily change the opacity value and make them not as transparent.

Can you just not install it on any computer you use? If you can't, you can try Firefox Portable , which will run completely off a thumbdrive and not need to be installed

Naw, it's not exactly my computer, so I can't download anything without permission. But THANK YOU for telling me about the portable I'll look into it!

It works great. I use it on public school or library computers, and it's nice since I can have all my extensions and bookmarks

That's great. I don't care much for the edit buttons being there... they don't bother me much. But I will be using this.
You are awesome.

I agree with idea to change ugly new blue hover, but I think almost totally transparent normal look of that button is not good idea, cause it is almost invisible. This is very important for new users, which don't know there exist button.
I think best fix for ugly blue hover is just change that blue to some kind of desaturated green color or just changing brightness of normal button (as usual).
