I'm not much for making visual modifications, but I believe doing too many can also put stress on your hardware and drivers.

A translated version of a polish app that does exactly that, by modifying the startmenu's property file.

Enjoy!

Just for others this program does work I tried it, but it only works on the default Aero theme. But if you want it to work on a 3rd party custom theme after you have applied it to the default Aero theme go to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Aero\en-US and copy the aero.msstyles.mui to your custom theme of course renaming the old one first. The en-US Folder Will be different for other languages.
This program makes a backup of aero.msstyles.mui in the same folder so it's very easy to go back.

Next level stuff Bongo, but thanks for the tip. I'll remember if I ever change the default theme from Aero to anything else. Thanks for the + rep!
