Thanks for the reply Lucio your post has given me the clue to finding
out what was wrong.
What you did also worked for me but curious to know why it doesn't
work when I set the opacity from the __init__ method. I looked a lot
closer and see that my code uses sets the alpha value of the
ColoredLayer to the same value as my Sprite. But behind the
ColoredLayer is nothing but black.
I added the explanation for any other newbies, like myself, who came
across this thread. Nothing worse than seeing a post with a problem
close to yours that concludes with "Great worked it out now." and no
explaination.
Love the cocos package as it has made getting my app together a breeze
in much less time than I'd thought.
Thanks again Lucio.

guys. I make no promises ;-)
