Very beautiful theme though a little bit to bright for my tastes (I'm a dark colors lover). The start bar I thought was a tad to big as well. Didn't like the arrow that showed up when I tried to use the start menu either. But besides those faults I say this theme is great!
BTW: How do you get those icons at the top? (not the clock).

Besides those faults... haha! that just about covers the whole theme :-) To get rid of the arrow go into the plugins folder of the theme and delete "menuselect.bmp". Copy "menuitem.bmp" and rename it "menuselect". That'll get rid of the arrow. The "icons" at the top are the Panel plugin. Make sure you have it ticked in the AMaster\plugins\Panel properties and load the apc file that is in the theme\plugins folder. Anyway thanks for the comment and rate.

Clearly one of the best chrome themes for Aston. Well done!

Excellent theme mickel...
only prob i have with it (and i get this on nearly all themes), is that it isnt 1280*1024..... and hence the panel.plg looks too big for the theme... but i can live with that....

Sorry 'bout that no Man, but with my small screen and lousy eyesight I can't even consider working with that sort of res. Why not resize the Panel elements with your image editor?

sorry to be a noob but.. how do you install it?!
Date:02.16.2005 Name:mickeblue Rate:
Unzip it into the Aston themes folder, then open up the Theme Wizard and click on Watertight. It's as easy as that!

aston themes?
Date:02.18.2005 Name:mickeblue Rate:
C:\Aston\Themes ~ put the Watertight folder in there and it will show up in the Theme Wizard ( I'm assuming you have got Aston installed on your machine ).

I'm starting to get the feeling that you are either taking the Michael or you haven't visited the forums.

OK. Go to Programs\AMaster\PLugins and tick the following ~ Panel, AClock, Monitor, AstAmp, Disks. If you haven't got those plugins already, download them from the Aston plugin pages and put them into the Aston Plugin Folder ( C:\Aston\Plugins ) and go back into AMaster and highlight them. If you are still having problems post on the Forum pages under Plugins.

Nice job, micke. Hopefully I can FINALLY finish my theme this weekend. Somewhat similar to yours but different enough.;) A pint to you my friend. :D

I love this shell, i do have a problem tho, im trying to get the panel to work (Guessing you mean "TopPanel" plugin) however i cant figure out how to change it to your custom skin. It still uses the skin from my old shell. (The old shell was dark green, so it doesnt look to good)

People keep asking me why the theme loads with the old plugin interfaces from the previous theme... I don't know the answer to that, it's a corrupted file somewhere in their system.
All the apc files for the plugins skinned in this theme are in the Watertight\Plugins folder. Open the plugin properties and go to File\Load Settings... then navigate to the Watertight\Plugins folder in your Aston themes folder and click on the apc file for that plugin... it will then load the interface.
Plugins you will need to get your desktop looking like the one shown are - AMonitor, AClock, Amp, Disks, Panel, Menu.
Hope this helps... enjoy your Aston desktop!

Okay, I like this theme but would like to offer some constructive criticism. First, I am not crazy about the font, second, the font is too dark against the dark background... I'm Googling now how to change those. But the only *real* problem is on the Aclock, the hands display the correct time, but the LED-type clock right above it is incorrect.
