Description

We need to make the launcher in Tails look like the "start menu&quot; in Windows( eg: <bit.ly/OrSHi5&gt;). We should do this for Windows XP camouflage, Windows Vista camouflage, and Windows 7 camouflage. We can use <bit.ly/QGTNw&gt; for Windows 7 camouflage, and we can use <bit.ly/QfmNRj&gt; for Windows Vista camouflage (Both of these themes already include the Windows like "start menu&quot;, so the only thing we would need to do is create a "start menu&quot; for the Windows XP camouflage).

The design goal of the Windows camouflage mode is not to be a perfect imitation of Windows, but to look enough like it, for an observer that has a quick not-too-near glance, to avoid arising suspicion too easily. The start menu look is a bit different, sure, but one needs to have more than a quick glance, and know pretty well how it should look like, to see the difference.

Therefore, I’m tagging this .

Patches are welcome :)

Okay, I think I found a possible solution http://bit.ly/RlpTX0

Since the camouflage is re-done for Gnome3, this ticket has no further meaning.
