I suggest a Grid Main Menu, similar to the icon menu in the Library Plugins
I have made a mockup to show the idea. The icons are mostly from Linux Crystal Icons.
The upload limitations of height and width to 620x280 doesn't show how really good it looks on a wide fullscreen monitor.
A grid type menu would be perfect for larger 32-42" LCD/Plasma screens.
Best Regards

Could I jump in and add a similar suggestion (that may have been already made?)

Sub menu's for the main menu items. It could help group similar items on the main menu. (very) Rough mocked up screenshot below (including external Hi-rez)

And could I be cheeky and ask for more animations please Big Grin, especially for taskimages.

Cheers

Just kidding.

It is sort of is like the XBR menu on the PSP/PS3.

While that example looks good, I would only be interested in something like this if the groupings were customizable. One of my biggest pet peeves with MCE is the menu grouping.
