I would have to change the entire layout for the main page as I can't get the transparency effect with a Jpeg. Sucky I know.
Sorry for the late response, it's been all work and no play.

gif can handle transparency as well.
As for Onion style websites:
gifs handle transparency, but are really quite poor for colours.
Gifs are great for solid block colours, JPGs only for photos or images with a gradient in. Save for web in Photoshop can get the file size down pretty small.
