The original Gnome start menu have three menu items, and I always found myself puzzled of thinking which menu to click when I want to do something. I thought it not so convenient as windows start menu.

Here I have implemented a new start menu by modifying gnome-panel source. It uses gtk-image-menu-item widget, and is in fact a new window. It has all the gnome menu functions, except that the menu items are rearranged.  I upload some screenshots of it, and I want to know whether you would like it.
