*ooooh an update*
love the new icon, buttons, layout!
thanks yet again hqh!
only thing it needs is to centre main screen icons vertically (install, remove, upgrade, etc)

The only thing I don't like about the change is the blacklist icon. I liked it darker.
Also, something I would love to see (unless there's some setting I'm missing that makes Hildon's menu not cut off the names of things): The name in the .desktop file to be changed to "F. App. Manager" instead of "Faster Application Manager". As is, I just manually edit it after every update, but it's far better than getting "Faster Applica" or whatever it cuts off at, exactly.
Beyond that, I personally like the icons (other than the blacklist one - which I don't dislike, just liked previous one a bit better); perhaps you can look into making FApMan use customizable icon themes/sets, like FileBox does? That can be changed in the settings? I am always a fan of giving a user as much choice as possible, even if I personally couldn't care less about having that choice, at least if it's not too hard/time-consuming to implement in the code.

Minor bump. I've searched this thread and apparently, the fapman can't refresh icons. The old command (gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor) doesn't work anymore. The only way, that I found, to refresh icons is to reinstall software in HAM and then the icons do get refreshed.
Any possible fix coming to this? Should I report a bug in bugzilla?

That script was disabled in PR1.1 (IIRC)
It's simply an empty script now.

What I tried to ask, was, that is there any alternative way to refresh the icons, other than reinstalling one software in the HAM? I've yet to find another way.And I forgot, there's no entry for this app in bugzilla, it's in garage.

Enough trolling. My icon cache refreshes after a while. I use desktop activity manager (kills hildon), ApMeFo and who knows what else. Maybe one of those does the trick?
OTOH, with this damned reboot issue I was having one never knows if it didn't just reboot.

Not as root
killall hildon-desktop
hildon-desktop will restart itself, and the menu will have all icons refreshed
