[ubuntu] Problems with conky scripts

I am just trying to get conky configured but after hours of searching I simply cannot get a couple of things to work. I am using someone else’s script but I am trying to get it to be transparent as well as hide behind my other windows. Right now it has a black background and stays "on top" no matter what I do. Here is the script I have in my .conkyrc file, any experts want to chime in here?

use_xft yes
xftfont verdana:size=8
alignment top_right
xftalpha 0.8
own_window yes
own_window_type override
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
double_buffer yes
draw_shades no
draw_outline no
draw_borders no
stippled_borders 10
border_margin 4
border_width 1
default_shade_color grey
default_outline_color black
default_color BADCDD
use_spacer none
no_buffers yes
uppercase no
