Description
Update 8 - Added new style with a 24px TaskbarUpdate 7 - Font change from Arial to SegoeUI
Update 6 - Changed the color of the taskbar text to white
Update 5 - Some people have requested that I include both the old version of Lucent (without borders) along with the new one (with borders). The old version of Lucent still has and will always have the gap at the top of web browsers because there's no way to fix that.
Update 4 - Borders are now lined up correctly for all browsers
Update 3 - Now with alternative images for the navigation buttons ( see them in the preview )
Update 2 - The small taskbar background is now fixed
Update 1 - Theme now displays under installed themes correctly as " Lucent"
My version of a minimalistic Windows 7 Style
This visual style is displayed best with the "Frost" color at 0% transparency as it appears in the preview
Included:
-Lucent Visual Style ( without borders)
-Lucent Visual Style ( with borders)
-Lucent Visual Style ( with 24px taskbar)
-Explorer Navigation Buttons
-Alternative Navigation Buttons
-Fonts
Not Included
-Icons by me- inspired from Metro2 for Superbar by zainadeel

3. Change the windows navigation buttons

Looks awesome, the only is the the forward/back buttons don't quite fit with the rest of the theme. I think perhaps if you just went with simple arrows kinda like in the min/max/close buttons then they would fit really well with everything else. Anyways, great job!

I included additional navigation buttons that go with the rest of the theme. Thanks for the post!

awesome theme! but I think it would be better if it had some more window border area...and also there is a bug with google chrome...without any themes applied, the white borders of the theme overlaps the transparency of the browser.

Great style, just a little bug on the small bottom taskbar, the notification and start button area are lighter than the rest of the taskbar.

also, just noticed there is no progress color in the taskbar buttons (the greens/reds when copying files over). I would add them myself, but there isn't even an image there...

The reason for that is because I disabled the transparent:bool on the TaskItemButton to eliminate the colors when you hover over the icons. When I got rid of that it also took away the progress bar colors.

any chance you could do a version with the progress colors in? I can't seem to figure out how to do it myself

okay thanks, I'll have a fiddle and see what it looks like when they are re-enabled. (I really do miss the progress bar colors).

Awesome theme. Mind sharing the taskbar icons?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
As of right now I only have taskbar icons for the few programs that I use and it's nearly not enough to release as a pack. The icons were inspired from *zainadeel and his Metro2 for Superbar icon pack which are very similar.
