Version 1, Oct. 3, 2020

• Initial release.
• This skin is intended as a replacement for the Minimal skin. It produces a similarly minimalist album design, but retains almost none of the code from Minimal.
• The user options, album behavior, and underlying coding differ from Minimal in a number of ways:
  • Better control over maximum page width.
  • On a phone, thumbnail borders and padding are eliminated, and spacing between thumbnails is reduced.
  • Fully responsive slide page.
  • Smoother image transitions.
  • Better control over titling, captioning, and tooltip options.
  • Ability to customize the colors, beyond the Dark and Light preset styles.
  • More flexible image download options.
  • Easier selection of tooltip text for navigation icons.
  • Ability to include a copyright notice, a meta description, a robots tag, a link to a favicon, and Google Analytics.
  • Ability to apply custom CSS, with syntax highlighting in the user interface.
  • Better text string cleanups.
  • Customizable credits link.
  • Larger default image bounds for thumbnails and slide images.
  • Unsupported objects are automatically excluded from the project.
  • GIF's are not converted to PNG's, so animation is preserved.
  • Unified stylesheet, which reduces uploading and server calls.
  • SVG icons, to allow color selection.
  • Simplified icon set.
  • A relative URL may be used for the home page link.
  • Slide image preloading, for better page transitions.
  • No thumbstrip option.
  • No support for widgets or chained directories.
  • Compiled user interface. More robust and loads 6x faster.
  • Requires jAlbum 22 and Java 14 (Minimal is backward-compatible to jAlbum 14 and Java 8).
• This is a skin to use for making albums. It is not intended as a teaching tool. However, all the source code is bundled with the skin.
