PortableApps.com Platform

First, I would like to say that the PortableApps Suite is a beautiful piece of work. I never imagined I would be carrying the majority of what I use on my keychain. The main problem I do have with it is that after getting all of my apps on the usb stick, I have quite a menu to scroll through to launch them. For the sake of simplicity I have switched to using PStart due to the ability to group shortcuts in a similar layout to the normal Windows start menu.

John,
Could we have a menu theme forum?

It seems to be a quite popular topic right now. Some of the threads are getting quite long. It might be easier if Theme's or Menu Customization was in it's own forum. Does Drupal support sub forums?

Support Forums-
-PortableApps Menu
-Themes

Or it might even go into the development as its own forum. Might help promote also if it was easier to find things. Search theme and you will get 17 pages of results.

It appears that I'm running too many portable apps on my memory stick, and the menu doesn't have any scroll bars for me to see the programs that don't fit onto the menu. Is this a bug or user incompetance?

Is the source code available for the Menu Programs? I've been looking, and can't seem to find it. Thanks.

Just saw 300 last night. Awesome movie.

I just created a 300 theme based on the movie. I am working on some hosting with Ryan (maybe) :), and will post later a complete theme.

John,

Is it OK to recode the menu so that the "YOUR DIGITAL LIFE, ANYWHERE" tag is in a different color?

I want to offer it with my treklike theme. The pink works great on the red, just not on blue or really any other color. I don't know how to change the source code yet, but I am trying to learn. I have downloaded TurboExplorer and am going to take a shot at it. Maybe one of the really nice developers could even give me a hand.

Hi everyone!

I built a fully working version of PortableApps menu translated to french! (without using test.locale)
Does it interests anyone? I think I may start a new SourceForge projets... Am I wrong? Or are you interested in my translation?

I use PAM now for a few months and it's simply great. As a lot of people I have some suggestions, of which a few have already been mentioned a lot of times.

• Disable Transparency
• Stick Apps to the top of the list (like in windows xp start menu)
• Group Apps
• Favorites (Apps that should be launched when portable apps starts - could be an icon in the right list)
• Rename Apps
• autoupdate of PAM
• Right Klick on tray symbol shows menu with "start of favorites", "hide/show","close"

How do you shut down the Portable Apps menu? I click the "x" at the bottom of the menu but nothing happens?

how do i put my own skin up?
