Ok! How can I dedicate a whole openbox desktop for just a full screen, undecorated terminal? It would have to ignore conky and tint.

Ok, How about I restate this. How can I open gnome terminal in my second desktop on startup, where it will be fullscreen and undecorated? Also the second desktop shouldn't have conky or tint. Also without compiz. I already have the termianl transparent.

I don't know why you want to use gnome-terminal, but you could use devilspie to make it undecorated, fullscreen, etc. Just put it in your autostart.sh.
As for conky and tint, I have no idea though.

As dmz said, you could use devilspie and pin it to a particular desktop and list it in your autostart.

With Openbox you can set the default behaviour of a program through the config file, without using devilspie.
see here the documentation:
http://icculus.org/openbox/index.php/Help:Applications
giva an eye to this example:
<!-- my xterm with screen in it must always be on desktop 2,
maximized and below everything else -->
<application name="screen">
<desktop>2</desktop>
<maximized>yes</maximized>
<layer>below</layer>
</application>
maybe changing "below" with the appropriate keyword (over?) you could get what you want.

Thanks guys, but I do what you did AsA, but it won't open in desktop 2. I have the class and everything but still doesn't work :S
<application class="gnome-terminal">
<desktop>2</desktop>
<decor>no</decor>
<fullscreen>yes</fullscreen>
</application>

It should work, I tried it just a second ago...
i added
<application name="xterm">
<desktop>2</desktop>
<maximized>yes</maximized>
<layer>below</layer>
</application>
to the application section of .config/openbox/rc.xml and after restarting openbox it worked perfectly.
Maybe you should recheck the result of xprop WM_CLASS for gnome-terminal, unfortunately I can't do it myself because I'm allergic to gnome dependancies. .
