I want to create the theme that fits me perfectly, maybe it will fit you too? If not, let me know why!

Still the best Cinnamon theme ever. Thanks for the continued support, I haven't changed from Discreet Flat in years, it's perfect. The only thing I do is edit the .css file to make the panel transparent, maybe you could consider publishing a transparent panel version for others to enjoy...

Thanks for the kind message, I appreciate it! Regarding making a transparent version: Stylus has a feature that could be used to conditionally generate different variations of a theme: http://stylus-lang.com/docs/js.html#definename-node . I don't want to put effort into making this work unless there is a big demand for variations though. However if you know some JavaScript and would like to set this up, I would gladly accept it!

Unfortunately I'm just a desktop user, no Java skills here! Here's my Mega link to your current Discreet-Flat 05/26/18 theme with line #92 in cinnamon.css edited with "background-color: rgba(175,175,175,0.00);" which makes the panel transparent: https://mega.nz/#!GNxTUJ5Y!SAmoiGbIGV5gPlBeYJAhqc8ltxoZPgyRzGZyykB53tc Check it out, I love it. The first time I used XFCE where you can make the panel transparent right in the panel-settings, I became hooked on the transparent panel look.
