1. the white band is caused of some margins are not correct. (the image or the settings in the rebar/navbar are false)
 but what exactly causes your white effect, i don't know, btw it's also on the bottom of top frame..
 i guess it has to do with your changed adressbar and search backgrounds.. maybe you import them again with "replace old image", often it helps.

2. add property is for bringing in a new feature to the concerned function, maybe adding text glow to a non glowing text. the best is, you inspect some other themes and see what the authors have done here and there. what exactly is needed for a desired effect, is difficult to say without manual. a lot Try'n'error will make it. so i discovered a lot functions, too.

3. right-click a tree with the concerned settings then klick export, repeat this on all trees you want to export, finally right click and choose style-hack, name it, add a picture, and finally do it.. so you can import the style-hack on every other theme

4. no idea, sorry. haven't tried yet..

1: i have not much time to search your first asking question. for searching the problem i should have your work for searching it. but unfortunately i have not time. thats why i didnt respond.
2. adding a property , is just what it say, we add something new for having something different to the image or area we added, for example we add a text size bigger, or a different text color etc
3.  http://http://www.vistastylebuilder.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=37
4.i have failed to make right click translucent, thou you  can using 3rd party freeware application like yzshadow http://http://www.osx-e.com/downloads/utilities/yzshadow.html  [i have tried to experiment with alfa threshold,but failed]

You have not be disapointed, i was months without respond, also some of my questions have not answered after 2  years hex editing and searching.

What all did you try with the translucent context menu? I think it should be possible in some way.

Eeven if i used a non square shape when i applied it the corners of it becomes white. i tried to use alfa threshold, i failed.
look what hapenned if you use semitransparent images to popupborders and popupbackground.
