Using SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2 with Visual Studio 2008 with all the SP’s and hot fixes.

We are rolling our own dashboard and want to have an image created in a graphic tool and then place gauges at spots on the image. Imagine a car dashboard image with the gauges laid on top in various places. It’s a standard round gauge like an odometer. The gauge is rendered using the URL method via an I-Frame. Not sexy but it works <insert obligatory ex-wife insult here>. The problem is that the gauge overlays the image in a box and the image behind is blocked. It looks rather bad. I have searched and tried to find some solutions to allow for transparency but have found nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any consideration!

Just a thought - have you tried using JQuery to position them? It sounds like a html issue rather than a reporting services/ ssas issue. Thanks, Nick.
