Translucent_Apps Update/Suggestion/Response thread

[mylumia928]

As some of you may know, I made an app called Translucent_Apps, which gives you the ability to pin semi-transparent app shortcut to the start screen. I made this thread to keep people in the know on what I am working on, what issues I'm having and for you to give suggestions. I had a thread in the developer forums, but I felt I'd get a better response in a forum on apps.

Currently, I am working on an update to include as many apps users suggested as I can and to fix issues in the app (like the Office and OneNote tiles). This will probably end up being made in several updates. Expect a minor one tonight, with several apps added. Thanks for your guys' support!

This is all well and good, but you should post a link to the App. After all, then only we can checkout the app and give feedback. Anyway, I will check out the Store for the App.

I've noticed that the "S" in the Skype app doesn't appear to be translucent.

That was on purpose. I tried to make the logo be solid, but the background translucent

Hey, guys, expect another update tonight with at least 5 more tiles added! Still working on a fix for Office and OneNote. Stay tuned!

That seems a little weird to me since I pin the tiles expecting it to be completely translucent like the apps in the screenshot.

I can change that in a future update. Now that I think about it, it may look better with the transparent S.
