It is a ZIP download, the file is very light, only 330 KB in size.

Works well on W8 Pro x64, only thing is it fades the whole taskbar, icons and all. Not that much of a problem as you can set the amount of fade just enough to see the icons when in fade mode, when you run the mouse over the taskbar the whole thing re appears anyway.
Only updater I’d like to see is a way to maintain the icons, that way you coiuld set it to full clear all the time.
Other than that its neat to have some resemblance of “areo” in W8 :)
Nice feedback. Thank you very much.
