Description
Mercury is a suite of skins designed around a taskbar that is in tune with Windows and its accent color. Choose from 3 themes: Accent, Dark, Light. The Accent theme takes on the accent color of Windows as the background and determines the foreground color (Text, line graphs, etc) based on the accent. The Dark theme takes on a charcoal background and uses the Accent as the foreground when appropriate. The Light theme takes on a slate background and uses the Accent as the foreground when appropriate. If you really dig into the settings variables, I've given some nice levels of customization for each theme, all editable in a single file. Ignore the fact that it's a little rough around the edges in places. I plan to smooth it out over the coming weeks and will post semi-regular updates, largely depending on when I'm able to mess with it.

All of the skins change with Windows, so if you have "Automatically pick an accent color from my background" turned on--no worries, it will stay in sync! To deal with multiple values in line graphs, it is also aware of the complement and the two other triad colors of the Accent color.

It comes with two sample skins that can easily be modified into whatever you please (located under MercurAPI).

All user settings are changed manually at \Mercury\resources \inc\SYSTEM_VARIABLES.inc. See Roadmap.html for known issues and let me know of any you run across!
