Can you put the new Windows 7 orb like in your VistaVG RTM theme on this one, I'd like.

hey, im using it but the orb size is not the same as in Windows 7, can you make it the same as the VistaRTM theme (the correct sizing)

First of all, great job on everything! I've used most if not everything on your site at one time or another and it's all great!

That said, I did notice a minor issue with this theme. To reproduce it, open the Registry Editor and expand/collapse the My Computer key. The expand/collapse arrow is not erased, and the new one is instead draw immediately over the old one. Minimize/minimizing the window fixes the issue. I'm not sure if this is fixable, but thought I'd mention it, since no one else seems to have noticed it.

Once you click "Start" button then on the panel for My recent Documents/Network places the first letter of each item is overshadowed by "Latest programs" panel, or at least it looks like letters are overshadowed.

Is it possible to set bigger left margin/padding for that "my documents/printer faxes and the rest" panel?
