Publisher's description

From Gladiators Software :

Aston replaces the standard Windows desktop and delivers a host of new features. In addition to Windows' standard desktop tools, Aston adds options such as more hot keys, a shell swapper, icon animation features, and detailed setup of any element. Plus, a small footprint and minimal processor resources mean that Aston will not bog down your system's performance. A Theme Wizard has been added (instead of Theme Creator and Theme Manager). It has a new interface, Win XP visual style; built-in themes are replaced; and much more

Version 1.7 adds: support for jpg files (directly, without converting to bmp), 'Setup tray icons' command, 'Task manager' command to context menu of taskbar (in Win NT/2000/XP), and more. Improved most of plug-ins and fixed reported bugs.

Added: the "Task manager" command to context menu of taskbar (in Win NT/2000/XP).
