It looks like the margins shifted on you. Try reloading the current skin, deleting it and redownloading, or adjusting the margin's your self in skinstudio. I am guessing that a restart of your pc will probably fix it. I beleive that iconX will do what you want with the icons. Not totally sure as I don't use the prog.

If you're not using the current build of WindowBlinds (4.3), you'll get the shifting in the start menu when the skin is designed with the large more programs arrow trick thingy ... whatever you call it.

It looks like when the skin was built, the margins were adjusted just enough to push the English text "All Programs" off of the start menu. However, in French, that phrase has more characters in it and isn't completely moved out of view.

I bet you can fix it like this:

1. Open VectorCell in SkinStudio

2. In the tree on the left, navigate to Start Panel -> More Programs Panel -> Background (click on Background)

3. Now look over in the Attributes pane on the right side of SkinStudio. Click on Content Margins.

4. Decrease the left content margin until the text no longer appears and things look properly aligned. Judging by your screenshot, I'd guess setting it to -134 would put it right where it should be.

In answer to your second question, WindowFX will allow you to make only your desktop icons 48x48, while leaving your other icons their normal size.
