For people who admire the taste of osu! "argon" pro skin in the lazer release, as well want to have other general UI modernized.

Credits:
  1. "osu!pure" skin by CrispySquirrel (Castin Cramer) from community/forums/topics/1227826
  2. "osu!lazer" skin by DP05 (DemoPlayer05) from community/forums/topics/730045
  3. "argon remake" skin from https://www.reddit.com/r/OsuSkins/comments/y11vk2/
  4. hitsounds of osu! "argon" pro (2022) skin from official GitHub repos, with an indication from https://www.reddit.com/r/OsuSkins/comments/zxmxe1/.
This skin is basically a mix of the skins and components mentioned above with tweaks and improvements that mainly focus on Std mode and menu UI. Details below (click to expand):
  1. Song selection, ranking, pause and fail screens
    1. Mod icons adopted from "osu!lazer", with incoherence fixed and missing icons for Mania mode added as new;
    2. Bottom (mode selection etc.) buttons adopted from "osu!lazer" and redesigned using "osu!pure" assests;
    3. Strips of beatmap entries redesigned using assests from "osu!lazer" and "osu!pure";
    4. Ranking screen from "osu!lazer" is enhanced with assests newly created or imported from "osu!pure" to fix font inconsistence and beautify the look;
    5. Pause and fail menus adopted from "osu!lazer" but now a lot more consistent.
  2. Std Mode
    1. Cursors, hitcircles and sliders fully adopted from "argon remake", with minor changes on the slider ball;
    2. Spinner created from scratch, referencing to the style of the "argon" pro skin in the lazer release, using a few assets from "osu!pure";
    3. Hitscore assests is from "osu!lazer".
  3. Other Modes
    1. Taiko Mode is from "osu!lazer" with hitscore and pippidon assests from "osu!pure";
    2. Catch Mode is from "osu!pure";
    3. Mania Mode is from "osu!lazer".
PS, '"osu!lazer"' mentioned in this post refers to the skin by DP05, and 'lazer release' the official cutting-edge release of osu! game.

The skin was made with the size of the .osk file in mind, resulting in the final package as small as less than 6MB!

Initially I was just about to do a rough remix for personal usage, but eventually I started to add in missing components and tinker a bit. Thus, now after a few days of work when I think it's more or less done, I decide to make it public. Hope you enjoy it and comments are welcomed!

Thanks for your appreciation! Agreed. argon's so great that I'd even seen players trying out lazer just for the argon skin ww

nice work!

i unpacked the skin file and found 4 slider related textures which are not very clean...
i tried to redraw them using GIMP (and i used this tool for restoring the arrow: https://express.adobe.com/tools/convert-to-svg)

so here is my result:

before
after

maybe it looks a little better now ? xddd

the patched skin files are here:

OP should probably use your sliders. You did pretty good removing those spots and smidges.

Thank you for the great work! This issue with the slider textures is like a bug/mistake I wasn't paying attention to in the first place as well forgot to check back later on TwT... so thanks for figuring it out!

btw I also used GIMP for most of the editing of the textures in this skin xp
