Have you looked at MultiShortCut plugin? With this plugin you can launch new programs from MP, add a nice icon to it, and decide if MP should stay or minimize while the external program is running.

There are a few skins around with a GAMES menu, but customizing it is going to be your challenge. What skin are you using?


It's been a while since I used Aeon, but I think the Aeon menu editor can generate your own games menu. You can use the plugin suggested by Petsa above and combine it with the "screensaver on basic home tip" to get a dummy xml file for your shortcut and then select that dummy xml file in the Aeon menu editor.
