I was able to remove the background shade of desktop shortcut icons using the hint provided in this thread - to rename the ApplicationShortcutApplet.png and ApplicationShortcutAppletPressed.png. Desktop real estate is saved.Thanks a lot guys.
Is there a way to remove the background shade in the top left corner of desktop where the time, battery stuff are shown ?

the icon backgrounds are in user/share/themes, just add the number 1 to their file name to disable them
you can also swap them around with other themes if you see a better background in another theme, with out having to apply the other full theme

That looks pretty good Grant. Mind sharing how you're able to change the background of the icons to just translucent squares? And what how did you modified OMWeather to have it be so clear? I love OMWeather but it's blocking off like half of the background

/usr/share/themes/YOURTHEME/images/ApplicationShortcutApplet.png
and
ContactsAppletFrame.png
Images for OMWeather are in:
/usr/share/omweather/images
Attached are the 6 images used on the pictured desktops. The 4 included OMWeather images make the 3 and 7 day horizontal views transparent.
