Problems with GnoMenu

Hey there.

First of all, I'm not english. I was learning english for 4 years but sure there will be mistakes in my post. Please don't laugh at me.

I changed to Ubuntu Linux this christmas. After using it for two month, i decided, that it was to complicated to make a quick change like that. A friend in a forum said, that I can download Zorin, which is like Windows.
Zorin looks great and is like Windows 7, with the cool search bar. But I missed the Windows-feeling. So I found an topic in an old forum: http://zorin-os.webs.com/apps/forums/topics/show/2122977.
[8] Yes. Right click on it and open the preferences, then change the button. You can get more button themes from http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=189

I downloaded some cool themes. But my problem is:

All the themes are made for XP/Gnome look of Zorin. If I am using the Win7-look, the start menu is cut at the bottom. Only when I am using XP/Gnome look it looks OK. One theme I found on gnome-look.org is good, it is not cutted at the bottom. But the theme is in spanish (desligar = shut down i think) and i don't want this theme. How can I change the other themes, so they are not cutted off at the bottom? Has anyone a theme in english, where it is not cutted off?

Greetings

Hi,

I can only assume that Zorin doesn't like 3rd party themes as it already customized.

Try downloading a few themes and see if they work for you, thats all I can really suggest!!.
