You can make the white area transparent in your skin by using the following commad:

color-transparent

Specifies the color that should be used as the transparent color on subsequent loading of bitmaps.

Syntax

color,transparent,<R_G_B>

Parameters

<R_G_B>
   

R -> Red component (0-255)

G -> Green component (0-255)

B -> Blue component (0-255)

If R set to –1, then G can specify a theme color (see below).  In this case the B value is irrelevant and can be set to any value (usually – 1).

Example

color,transparent,255_0_255


This can be found in the reference guide found HERE .
