Translucent v1.0.1
BigBox Theme

Theme Description
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Translucent is a modern-ish theme that features real-time Gaussian blurring behind its transparent panels giving them a frosted glass look. The effect works on both background art and background videos.
Theme Notes
~~~~~~~~~~~
* Requires the font Bebas Neue, which is included in the root theme folder. Install it before running BigBox.
* This theme is designed for 1080. The way the blur effects are implemented as well as the way that some text is formatted won't provide optimal results at any other resolution. I am aware of this, there is no need to comment and tell me about it. Beauty trumped compatibility on this one.
* Any display scaling above or below 100% is likely to cause alignment issues with some of the theme elements.
* The real-time Gaussian blurring can be a resource hog with fullscreen background videos enabled. Setting all transitions to "None" can help performance, as will using fan art backgrounds instead of videos.
