Graphics

I'm trying to create a small bug with fully transparent text over a 50% alpha quad shape.... but I can't get the letters to show up. I've tried a 100% alpha material, and adjusting the alpha in the object list, but no luck. How do I do it?

Create a quad for your background with the alpha set to 50%..

Type text over top of it. Edit the "Face" material of the text and in the Blending section set the blending mode to Alpha Mask. (In the viewport it will appear as black text, but when you key this scene over something, the black is actually masked to be fully transparent.)
