You can't use anything over 256-color in RPG Maker 2K/3 (if you put it in the folder manually, it just shows a black box when you try to use it). If you need to convert something to 256-color, try using Ultimate Paint (http://ultimatepaint.com).

As for transparent systems, you can just click the color you want transparent when importing it. If you want translucent systems, where the menu's only partially transparent, you won't be able to do that without a CMS and custom message boxes.

You can have a translusent battle system menu, in the database you can set the battle layout to be like that. Message boxes will also become translusent if you do this.

The actual menu can't be transparent, if you make it transparent, it'll come out as black in the menu and title menu.
