Very strange colors for my taste but I wanted to try out something new. and here it its. Delight theme for Aston desktop shell is avery light and full of cool features at the same time. Tricky stuff was tiling that mash (grid) texture you can see in Start menu and in some of the widgets but at the and of course clock widget.  You can see the full screen shot below

Dimpal and I tried to make a real clone of HTC clock and in a way we succeeded. Some more improvements will be applied in the near future.

This is a great treat for all Aston2 users. Titanium theme is in my opinion my best theme so far. You can get the theme here and below you can see it in full screen size. Making this theme was really great experience and I applied some really cool design stuff and some new Aston2 skinning techniques.

I made a clock that had a gear (cog) in the back and when Nick Egorov saw it he said what about gear rotating as in the real clock.

Well as some might have noticed I have been pretty absent lately but it is time for a change. Oh yes I have been skinning, I participated in creating World Cup theme for Aston2 and I have been working on several new things but have been also busy with some personal issues. Now that is all behind me and I am ready to rock, in between the watching the football games, and you will see some very cool and fresh stuff coming soon. I promise.  So I will return soon with something more substantial.

Theme for Aston inspired by smartphones GUI design took me much time and still not fully finished. I am at the moment occupied by some personal issues so I will return to this theme when I have more time. For now it includes many widget skins but I promise I will return and polish it up some more. Below you can see full screenshot and the theme can be obtained here.  See ya soon.

New Aston is released and you can get it here. It comes with tons of new stuff, you can read more about it here. Theme,  which shots you can see here below is made as default theme for new Aston2, default meaning if some widget skins are missing it will be applied. You can get theme here and below are 2 sreenshots. I hope you will enjoy the theme.

In past month or so I have been really busy working on updating all of my themes for new version of Aston2 that will be released soon. Great news for all of the Aston1 Panel (Top Panel) fans, it is back, Well it is better than ever and I am very excited about it. It is called Launchbar widget now and looks and works really cool. Below I have attached several screenshots of it and one small youtube video that shows few more things as well.

Screenshots of two old and one new theme that I am really happy how it turned out

Age of Aero2 was great source of fun in the past two weeks, had a blast while I was making it although it was a bit though. I tried not to repeat myself because I have already  made several Vista/Win7 aero styled skins for Astonshell,  AltDesk and Aston2, did I succeeded ? well… its on you to tell. Anyhow I hope you’ll enjoy this one, below is the full screenshot and the actual theme can be obtained here.
BTW also would like to give credits to unknown author of wallpaper used.

Christmas time is my favorite  and most inspiring holiday so I made one really cool Christmas Aston2 theme. Theme is available with new Aston2 version 1.6 (Christmas edition) which includes some really cool new features like RSS widget and floating widgets. Below you can see the theme in full screen with my animated live desktop Christmas Madness. I have used some free icons  from Smashing Magazine which made my job a bit easier since the schedule was really tight. Also you can get two versions of static wallpapers just in case you get fed up on animated wallpapers.

Below are additional wallpapers.

Theme for Aston2 inspired by DJ Hero game. I have never liked the idea of using brushed metal in UI and skins in general but I must admit it fit in quite nicely. My first animated wallpaper but so I hope you’ll like it. You can get the theme here and below you can see the 1440×900 screenshot. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did while making it. It took hours and hours too polish the look the way I wanted but I think it has payed off well.

Vitaly Cashev and I made a Halloween theme. Vitaly did the desktop and I did start  menu and panels. Great help was  using icons made by Pien Duijverman for Smashing Magazine . Below you can watch the video and see the theme in full screen.

Get theme here and Astonshell 2 here
Happy Halloween
