The journey began with a post from MC_K3NNA about the possibility of "modernizing" the appearance of MusicBee. Pure Black&White is my stab at it.



These skins are like a mobile phone app where the mouse is your fingers:
Right/left click = Tap
MouseWheel = swipe up/down(vertical scrolling)
Shift+MouseWheel = swipe right/left (horizontal scrolling)
The scrollbars are still there only not visible. Also highlighting is done by a change in shade rather than the "traditional" method of swapping text & background colours.
The icons in the "bit-mapped" player and the skin.xml were purloined from
diego's Fluenx Dark skin - thanks for sharing your source.
For those with smaller screens the two skins are also provided with the "flat" player.
