Post subject:  Classic two column start - medium right-side icons
In the windows XP start menu, the right side has icons, but they are medium sized. This makes it so that they have icons, yet they still don't look...clunky. This is a feature request asking you to add the ability in classic start to make the right side have medium-sized. This would not affect the skins in any way, as this mode would make them be the same size as on 'no icons', and could therefore use the same hover images from the skin, and would require no foreseeable changes to the skinning system. So, could you add this ability?

An example of the windows XP start menu... As you can see, the medium icons on the right-side make it look prettier.

Adding a new icon size can be expensive, so I don't want to do it.

You can achieve a similar result if you do this:
  • Find icons for the items in the right column that have the size you want (like 24x24)
  • Pad them with transparent pixels to the full icon size (32x32)
  • Set the new icons in the properties for the menu items
  • Edit the Luna skin to reduce the icon padding in the second column. You can even use negative padding (Main2_icon_padding=4,-4,4,-4)
