That's something I'll never understand - why make the text on
a terminal harder to read, by using transparency?
Granted, it'll look better, but that's it.
As long as you have a compatible desktop wallpaper, a good set of
fonts and colors, it makes your desktop look great while helping
contrast on the fonts (shadow for example) if you configure it well.
Programming on a black or white background can become seriously
boring, while putting an image as terminal background makes you feel
like your desktop and terminal are two different worlds (it hurts my
eyes).
IMHO transparency is two on one, you set your desktop wallpaper and
your terms background at the same time.
