Low CPU mode - redviolet - 2015-03-11
I love Transparency! layout and features, but it's terribly CPU expensive in my poor raspberry pi, even after disabling animated icons. It seems that the main problem are the small blinking animations for selected items, that are cool, but not totally necessary to enjoy the skin.
Could it be possible to have a "Low CPU" setting that disable all those constant blinking? It would be great in small devices.

nope, sorry, i won't be adding a setting for it.
you could try to mod the skin yourself.
it probably is as simple as settings this line to false:

Thanks for the tip!
I tried modding the skin last night, and finally managed to disable the animations only when the screen saver is active.
