Description another OPEN ART pico skin ...

PLEASE DELETE ANY EXISTING VERSION BEFORE INSTALLING, sometimes file are not replaced correctly

ABOUT SCREEN

default


DESCRIPTION

this skin focuses on usable light, colorful transparency. i'll design this to be as subtle as possible focusing the eye on your beautiful walls/photos instead of my skin.

tx is for transparency. note the readable title, buttons and fully transparent taskbar. i have a ways to go. there will be a full rainbow of subs when i go to beta.

you probably want to run batch files to customize this skin for your wall. the default works well with light wallpapers. use the batch files in skin directory to change font and images. (double click the files to run them). if you have a busy wall use the opaque black or white taskbar. after running the batch files reapply this skin. in some instances you may have to switch to another skin, run the batch files and then apply this skin.


CHANGE TASKBAR FONT/IMAGE COLOR

use-color-black
use-color-white

CHANGE SHELLSTYLE

use-shellstyle-left
use-shellstyle-right

CHANGE START PANEL SIZE

use-startpanel-size-32px
use-startpanel-size-48px
use-startpanel-size-full


CHANGE TASKBAR

use-taskbar-transparent
use-taskbar-black (opaque, auto changes font and images)
use-taskbar-white (opaque, auto changes font and images)
use-taskbar-transparent-flipped (use this if the taskbars on top and left are not rounding to outside)

HISTORY

[11]

+ default sub
+ black sub
+ ubuntu sub
* red close button
* increased progress bar height

i'm still refining the subs. i'm not satisfied with ubuntu sub. the brown is such a beautiful color but it's hard to get good transparency results.

i like this better than the transparent subs in pico black. when you add colors, please consider hot pink and lavender for the women in my life (wife and daughter)

excellent work again!

the minimize, maximize, and close buttons are nice, as well as transparent window borders, but I don't like the title bar by the icon... it seems out of place, maybe smoothing it out
