For me the important part is not how pretty it is to look at, but rather how easy it is to use. So the small icons arent that necessary
Also, i would like a black font. it is much easier for the eyes (and also for a camera...) to see a black font on a light background

I had some problems with the FAM, so maybe I won't continue it, but changing the colour of the font is easy I think

I will do it later or tomorrow

I suspected that there would be problems with moving the icons to the side

Just make the space between the textlines narrower and the font black, so will it be a huge improvement for me

I can do that, but there is a small problem with the selection... I have to find and change the selection of the "icon" because it does not select the right one when the names are really close. I will keep you updated

I just checked the source, it is hard for me to understand because it is C++ and clutter, and not C and GTK. But i think there is something going on in hd-launcher.c line 800+

electroaudio what about this one?

Here you can try it

text.deb

and write this on terminal:

Code:

root
cd /home/user/MyDocs
dkpg -i text.deb
killall hildon-desktop
