I don't think you can. You could try gdesklets' starterbar, perhaps?

Translucent yes. Transparent, no.

I don’t know about Gnome but it can certainly be done in KDE >> Here (http://www.gstapleybo.dsl.pipex.com/jan3.jpg)is a screenshot of my Kubuntu and I have made all of them transparent/translucent.

How do you do it in KDE?

You can just expand the panel, so those "handlers" don't show, but you would waste the space to the sides.

Ah Yes it seems if you want to have the panel completely transparent, you can't have items such as desktop switcher, system tray, trash or clock since they have "handles." But icons alone should work nicely. Thanks kyre for the good tip.

configure panel>appearance>advanced options then either fade out or hide the applet handles.

duh, I get it now...I just wasn't thinking >"You can just expand the panel, so those "handlers" don't show" as in they just don't. Not move the panel past the edges. :mrgreen:
