viyoriya I gave that a whirl but it was a bit broken. This was a few weeks ago so maybe some bugs have been fixed.

Modest and clean are it's selling points, without all that 58-point font size fuss at the top. Attractive, but see @buddyspencer above....

Lucien_Lachance Far far far less configurable vs Arc Menu, Arc takes it to the near KDE levels of customisation.

Justin no need to configure when its already just how i want it (except i made some minor changes in the code like replacing 'Applications' with 'Menu' and changed the icons sizes)
