Once its expanded, set the foreground color to black, hit Alt-Backspace to fill it, then lower the opacity of the rectangle to the measure that you wish. However, it looks like Toenail used an Opacity Gradient on his box, and I'm not totally sure how to do it, so I wont say lol.

easy way around the gradient look in what he did... make the box white or whatever color, take the eraser brush to a huge fuzzy circle, set the opacity of eraser low then just erase it at the end until it looks good

thats better man, looks really nice

How to to add gradient to your "bars":

First, make a rectangle with the rectangular marquee tool. Then, fill it in with what ever color you want. Change the opacity of the bar if you want.
Now goto add layer style/gradient overlay. Change angle to 0 degrees. Press ok. You've got a bar with gradient.

where did you get that tut toenail
