Nice!  I was just looking for a light theme.  Thanks!

Please note:
I've updated the skin today with improvements to the now playing node (requires the latest MusicBee patch).
I also added a couple skin variations some users might prefer.

one of the best and clean skin i ever used, really nice

one request, why not use those wireframe control buttons for the miniplayer too!

Glad you like it.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

i think it means the same style of player buttons as the main panel. If you do want to do this i would need to add support in the mini-player with new icon overrides

It crashed the MusicBee, I use the latest beta 3.0.5874.

I'm afraid there's not much I can do, but maybe Steven can help.

Please note:
Skin updated today, with a few fixes and improvements.

@TheHunter101, could you PM me a link to your settings file (help/ support/ view settings)

Yeah thats what i mean. Since new icon styles are clashing with the old icon style i think it is best to have the same consistency between player modes.

Normally I am totally disinterested by light skins, but this one takes everything I love about your Duophonic skin and wraps it up in a bright fashion. Awesome work, yet again!

However there is the same issue that I pointed out about the Duophonic skin where the Wavebar doesn't match the rest of the sidebar. Also the status bar's text is super hard to read – don't make it black, I like how you were aiming to keep it subtle but a few shades darker in grey would do the trick!



I hope to see these changes implemented, please keep contributing to MusicBee 3.0 skin options. You've got an eye for design, my man.

@thebradlambert
I'm glad you like it. The wavebar is fixed, and this modified version addresses the status bar: https://app.box.com/s/n39636l04zjd5bflqiomf3espd8gu9dm

@alumni - I thought I was familiar with the v3 layout config panel until I saw your screenshot for this skin.  It appears the the small album art is part of the main panel's tracks view, correct?  I can't figure out a) how to get the line spacing that you're showing; and b) how to get the album art where it is.

Thanks.

Yeah it's easy to miss, and I think it was added fairly recently as a kind of tracks with thumbnails layout.
When you're in Tracks view, click the submenu again and then click on artwork (under displayed fields), and click medium picture.

Got it.  I must've looked at that submenu a dozen times after I decided it wasn't configured from the Panel Config menu.  And I still missed it.

Thanks.
