Good job Aston, nice work, but I have problems with -window blind 5, menu plugins does not paint , strange behaviour on the logon screen. -Themes made with beta do not work right now. -Some how weather plugins got missed up but I got it fixed, but not significant compare WB5 compatibility , Beta was OK with WB5

when I baught the 192 version, I also asked to get a CD with the download and when I did that I was not prompted to get one after going through your purchase proceedure. After doing that, assuming that I could just install the Code after installing the trial version and for some reason I not even getting a fully functional task bar. The side pannels don't let me access Aston theme wizard or shell swapper and I can't they don't have any icons in them either. Please tell me that I'm missing something and that it can be fixed. I love using Aston, but I ran into problems the first time that I baught the 1.9.1 version as well and when I asked for help on it, all I got was silence.
