Steven, this is REALLY very nice. Thank you so much for implementing this. Makes the player look sooooooo much 'lighter' and free.
Feedback:
1. It would be nice if the close/maximize buttons were also autohide like the musicbee logo.
2. The outer edge/border of the player is not reflecting the color of the parent skin even when 'change panel color for each displayed picture' is unchecked. For me, it goes to a deep black in dark skins and a gray in lighter skins that in the case of my skins, I know are not present. Makes the skinning on the playbar seem off in that respect..
3. Regarding 2 above, I understand that the edge/border color will match the color of the displayed picture when enabled (and I like it), but I think that the parent skin should retain the color of its border around the playbar as indicated below... thus making the playbar seem as a true base and prevent color conflicts. If it is not east to keep it around the playbar, then let the skin control the color of the entire edge... though I would prefer the former.
They are not lazy... just more efficient.
