Morphology

likey = like (semi-transparent) = like + y

The relation to 'like' is clear, but the slang adjective uses a playful nonstandard suffixation pattern rather than a fully regular everyday derivation.

Etymology

Likey comes from the simple word like plus the playful -y ending that means 'full of' or 'having'. So likey describes something that is liked or feels appealing.
