[pygtk] change the background image in a Pygtk table that contains a layout

[Petsas Athanasios]

Thank you Steve for the idea! I tried with eventBox, and it works for the
table, but doesn't work for the layout.
The problem is, that my widgets lie on the layout that is attached to the
table. All I want to do now is to make
the layout transparent, but the widgets that the layout contains I want to
be showed. Is there any way i can do
that??

Thank you,
Thanasis
