Hi Everyone!
For the most part I have had a very enjoyable experience with this os. I have been a long time Mac, Windows, and Mint Linux user. I decided to try this os because Linux Format highly recommended it. It is not hard to figure out why this Linux OS is becoming popular. It is very easy to use. Your Lite Software Tool is excellent an idea to add popular software that is not included with the os. I would add more software through this medium channel than changing your lineup. Would you consider adding the following items to your Lite Software Tool? I would like to have you add Cinnamon's applets, grub customizer, a weather applet that actually works for the menu bar (this has been a real hassle with a number of linux os'), and a theme changer similar to plymouth.
As for granny proofing or my mom proofing, I would like the opening feather graphic or other graphics to continue from turn on to login and login to start button usage. No black whatsoever. The user should not have to feel like they lost their screen graphics. Incidentally, I do like your proposed login screen!! Maybe have a nice grub graphics page like Zorin. Also, I would like to suggest as well a desktop only app to turn-off icons not unlike what Mint Cinnamon uses. Setting up printers needs to be more granny-proof as well. I have no problem doing this. But, I can see others having this hassle.
I did notice in a couple of incidents where my Linux Lite 2.8 froze up temporarily. Not sure why this happened but it always came back. Did not notice this in 2.6. Also, I noticed screenlets sometimes disappear at startup. Other times they show up as they should. This has happened a few times on my other computers as well.
Otherwise, keep up the good work! This os is rapidly becoming my first choice to use!!
