Thanks for over 190.000 Downloads and Updates :)

WinLaunch - Launchpad for Windows (Beta - still got some work to do)
---------------------------
Read this!
WinLaunch requires .Net 4.0: [link]

for a demonstration of all the features (adding apps, making folders, options, etc...)
watch this [link]

This is Launchpad(Quickstarter) taken from Mac OS X Lion and implemented for Windows.

I know many people have done similar projects,
but i wasn't able to find one that replicated it good enough.

So i started working on my own version.
I put some real effort into making the look and feel as close to
the original as possible.

As stated above this is still a BETA version,
if you have found a bug please report it to me (LaunchpadByC0rrupted@gmail.com).

WinLaunch works at any resolution, but has been optimized to run at FullHD.

Next major release
---------------------------
- Improved folder rendering performance
- Fix for folder rendering glitches

Planned for future relases
---------------------------
- Context menus
- Custom icon layouts
- Installer


Updated to 0.4.6.1

Nice piece of software!

As some people mentioned before me, it doesn't fully work on Windows 8, the desktop wallpaper function isn't working, and if Aero is selected, the background is black.

And a question ~FCNoob also asked, are you going to make the source code public? Just curious how this program is written, seems to be WPF.

Excellent effects! If it launches faster when shortcut icons more than 30 would be better.

I use it for over three months now and all I can say is just - PERFECT! I love the WinLaunch and I'd like to give you some good tips :)

- Search Bar (should search apps inside WinLaunch, or all apps from Start Menu)
- Time (like the OS X Mountain Lion)

Oh, and I made a Slovak translation for it! (however, only the used parts are translated.

By the way, can you make sometimes in the future a OSX-like Notes app? The new one from Mountain Lion. :)
