Duality theme for Aston 1.91 and above
(minimum required version is 1.90, 1.91 is preferred; will not work with earlier versions)
by SacRat/A.R.T.;
created with some additional help from other A.R.T. team members and volunteers.

Duality is the very first theme, created for Aston 1.9.1 and using most of its new features (new Default theme was started many months later).
A result of my efforts in creating an eye-candy and easy to use theme for Aston, Duality is probably the best theme for daily use. Creating and testing this theme took more, than half a year. For these months it has been redesigned from the scratch for about five times.

FEATURES:
-Nice looking and easy to use interface;
-New Panel plugin allows you to configure your own elements set without breaking anything in design and without a need to define each element's skin manually;
-All basic Aston elements (Toolbars, Taskbar, Tray, QL, Tray Clock, etc...) are skinned;
-All popular plugins (Panel, AClock, Disks2, Weather, Resource Monitor...) are skinned;
-Original package includes AltDesk and Rainmeter skins;
-Optimized for 1280x1024 resolution, other resolutions should work as well;

Greets to the following people (in no special order):
Nick Egorov, Eric Waldman, Rich Kulesus, Scarabee Scara, Dmitry Prosvirnin, Mary Gileva and all other guys and girls, who helped me with their ideas, suggestions and bug reports ;)

read included readme.txt for details.

Nice and clean, stylish and easy on the eye. Well done! :)

Wonderfully simple and clean, a WOULD-BE favorite IF:

I could get that darned panel plugin to function correctly. ;_________;

For whatever reason, it refuses to show up, and I've been tinkering with it/trying to get it to for a good half hour now.

Any help?

Aside from that, fantastic theme. I'd be running it right now if I could only get that panel to show its cowardly self... ;D

Hmm, seems I could just transfer all the Panel plugin info to a new Toppanel...

Defeats the purpose of having the panel plugin in the first place... but at least I'm able to use it.

Now that I can see your theme completed, I have to say it is indeed an eye-catching, simplistic and clean theme. It's going on my desktop right now, and also into my top 5 rotation :D

Keep up the nice work!

maybe i should use this in a futile attempt to leech some l33tness before i start my new theme.......

i have a question : how did you make the 'glowy on one side of a curved line' effect? I've mucked around a bit with curves in photoshop, but i could never manage to achieve the effect. :p uzzled:
