Thickbox overlay non-transparent in Album?

I'm having a problem with Thickbox displaying properly in Album. In my case it seems that the transparent 60% opacity overlay is just rendered as solid black. I've checked the CSS and everything seems ok there. It's not a browser issue as I'm able to see others' deployments of Album with Thickbox just fine. ??? Any ideas? Here's a URL to check out:

I just noticed that the little loading animation isn't showing either, but first things first...

Edited to add: I'm using CMSMS 1.0.2 and Album .7.4., in case that matters, although the problem was present with previous versions of Album installed. I'm probably just missing something very basic.

Nope that's the way it shows up, sorry I think the background overlay image is a dark color, the animation might not be set with the right path...

There are others like Lightbox and Greybox...

Lightbox with Next/Prev. tabs in picture... http://www.multiintech.com/index.php?pa ... orbit_pics
this will also just show one at a time if needed...

Greybox... http://www.multiintech.com/Templates/in ... y-box.html Title and Comment can go in the top...

Greybox for showing Web sites or anything you want... http://www.multiintech.com/Templates/in ... lates.html

Thanks, Mark. Perhaps I'm confusing Thickbox with Greybox and the others you noted. Other examples of Thickbox, not necessarily in CMSMS deployments, do show a semi-transparent overlay, and the Thickbox CSS for Album has a bunch of opacity values, so I was a little confused.

I'll give Greybox a try.  :)

I just got Greybox working. It's cool. Time to monkey with the template.  :)
