I like the one on the left hand side. The icons and the overall design are sleeker and appear to be developed pretty well. However, I was wondering if the UI coordinator could add a themed look to the start menu. I would love to see a Windows XP-style menu because I like the frequently used program list and the pin to menu feature. I would also like to see transparency and theming in general (either by a theme file, or xml based theming). I know these are far off but it would be nice to see.

How does this work?
 I can't find anything in the wiki about this and it seems a bit of a grey area.

There has been quite a bit of discussion about the UI recently, and I've had a few people asking me how they can get involved, as they are finding it difficult to get their ideas accepted.

Two good designs that spring to mind are that of crappish and Dominic.

Due to the recent interest in the GUI, I would be relatively interested in getting some of their ideas into ReactOS.
I know Alex has some thoughts on improvements for 0.3 also

For instance, I think the button icon and menu graphic Dominic did are much fresher and easier on the eye (see attached  ... the graphic text needs tweaking). However I don't know whether I can just commit, whether there is a vote, whether MindFlyer can overrule us, etc.

Can we set some rules down so no toes are stepped on.

Thanks,
Ged.
