CS6 Icons are Translucent

There's two things that have gotten the most attention with CS6: the new dark UI scheme in Photoshop and Illustrator (which actually just looks like a refined version of the UI that Photoshop Elements has used for years, actually), and the new icons. Now, for what it's worth, I actually like the new icons, though the color choice on Photoshop's icon seem a bit odd. One neat thing I noticed shortly after installing CS6, though, was that the new icons are actually translucent. The effect looks rather nice, actually.

Here's a screenshot with the icons at max size over the Adobe website to show the effect in action:

Pretty nice!
