hsetroot is a tool which allows you to compose wallpapers ("root pixmaps")
for X.  It has a lot of options like rendering gradients, solids, images but
it also allows you to perform manipulations on those things, or chain them
together.  You could use one standard background image for instance, and
using tint to make it fit your current theme.  And yes, of course it is
compatible with semi-translucent applications like aterm and xchat.

At this time, hsetroot can render: gradients (multi-color with variable
distance), solids (rectangles) and images (centered, tiled, fullscreen, or
maximum aspect).  It supports the following manipulations: tinting
(overlaying a color mask), blurring, sharpening, flipping (horizontally,
diagonally, vertically) it also allows you to adjust brightness, contrast
and gamma-level.  hsetroot also supports alpha-channels when rendering
things.
