HostGator Style for cPanel

To provide the best possible experience in web hosting, some features were removed or moved from cPanel. The HostGator cPanel default theme, Jupiter, gives cPanel a new look that provides an easy-to-use format with features grouped into categories that makes it easier for new users to find the tools they need while not losing the familiarity and feel of navigation for experienced users.
