I would just like to remind people that I did not make the menu I just made the theme for the menu. if you want to complain about the functionality of the menu then search vista menu on gnome-look and post something there.
P.S.

I can also make other themes for vista menu if you want just tell me what you want and I'll try to make it. specific colors and pictures would help.

It would be nice if we knew who made it, at least for me, because I'd surely like to talk to the guy about the issues.

I'm missing all the submenus I like. Old stuff gets replaced by new stuff like in OpenSuse's menu and no popupmenus can be opened. Also if I actually want to go back, I first have to scroll all the way down, before I get to go back, bad choice, never got these vibes before, even on windows.

Every time I make adjustments to options, I have to remove and readd the applet before the changes appear, check menu theme for instance. This should be fixed immideately.

The profile image sometimes remains floating on the desktop after the menu closes.

To unpack this package one needs the non-free version of unrar. Not cool. A lot less hassle to just use gzipped tars like everyone else.

On install instructions deskbar package is told to be installed - this is "deskbar-applet" package, at least for Ubuntu studio 8.04 which uses Ubuntu repos. If not installed, applet crashes once added. Unpleasant at least.

These things said, it looks nice and it is the closest thing i found fooling my spouse she's still running XP - thanks for that. Please fix the bugs.

nothing wrong with liking the functionality of gnome and mixing it with the familiarity of Windows

P.s: And if this theme is violation of copyrights, what do you think about vistamenu itself?..

P.p.s: And what do you think about dozens of firefox, opera, xmms, audacious, gtk and qt themes about XP? I think that you can visit all sites that containing XP-like themes and leave your comment "Bad...". Maybe creators of XP-like stuff will like your comments...

Ahemm... He posted this here because THIS IS GNOME-LOOK and his theme is for GNOME... Ahm... GNOME application... So don't vote bad just because you don't like WXP or its look.
