Question Odd Start Menus...

i have been noticing that my start menu has been changing the way it looks a lot and i havent changed the items in the menu...just thought i would share this...and ask if it seems normal or not...

(i'm using reese's chaos penguins theme :) )

this seems to be the normal menu:




This one is really wide:



a blue line is added to this one:



this one is wider than normal and has the blue line:




i dunno...maybe everybody's pocket pc does this...but i just found it kinda interesting i guess... :p

I am guessing its due to the shortcut to "Remote display control"

that title being longer, has 'widened' the menu...

Also with the penguines it could be that the start menu pic is
not as wide as the required width of the start menu to display
the title program shortcut "Remote display control"

It is the long title, as it doesnt look that way on mine. Sadly, MS theme generator only allows one size image for your start menu, so its nothing i can fix. If you rename that shortcut, it should look normal.

Hey, I noticed that too. Is there anyway to get rid of this "new" start menu though? I think it's kinda annoying. Thanks

BTW, if anyone is still paying any attention to this one, I've posted a solution to this issue in another thread on basically the same topic. It's over here.
