How do I disable transparent title bar?

I really want to go back to using Opera after staying with Firefox for a while but the transparent title bar is making Opera unusable for me (I usually have multiple tabs and windows - the transparency makes it impossible to differentate between things). I've searched the forum and the web but can't find an answer to my problem. Can anyone help disable this title bar tranparency and make it solid? I'm using Windows Vista Home basic with Windowblinds - messing around with windowblinds setting or trying a windows classic setting doesn't seem to help by the way, neither does changing themes in Opera. Opera is the only program I have that has this problem.

Please help as I really want to go back to Opera.

Try any of these:

1. Show the menu bar
2. Show the personal bar
3. Use the Windows native skin
4. Use the main bar instead of the address bar.

Thanks but none of those help in stopping the title bar from being transparent. I'm talking about the bar at the very top of the program - the grab-bar if you prefer ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_bar

Working with lots of windows it's very difficult to know where to click and drag to move the windows around without a normal grab bar aka title bar. I seem to end up closing the wrong windows too through confusion with the transparency.

Like Pesela said:

Try the Native skin. We do not mean Operas standard skin. Settings>Appearance>Opera Native Skin.

This shows the title bar detached from the tab bar.

Additionally: Try this Skin or this one or this one aswell

I have a problem that is a little different, so please just say if should rather open a new topic for this smile

I updated from 10.51 to 10.52 (on Windows XP), and now I get this:


All small windows opens without frames and scroll bar. Well, I can still use the small window, but it's a little difficult especially when white small window on white main window p I tried different skins recommended above, but nothing seem to help. Any ideas, suggestions what to do?
