Could you create an install that has the media hub (I kind of like it) and 4 sides of 12 apps? It is easy to only show 1, 2, 3, or all 4 by changing the TotalCubes registry entry so it would be nice to have them all available if needed.
Sorry, I don't have any plans to add the media hub. I personally use the VistaCube2.0_Full_Animations install, so I only need to flip the cube twice to see everything. I only added the 4 side, because Zyphlin said it would be nice to have a 4th side for Internet favorites. I might use it later.

I started by just trying to find one for Opera and have not had any luck.

How hard is it to make the animations include any custom icons we put in the cube?

Thanks again for you work!
All my original icons are in all these installs. Look in \Program Files\Vista Cube\Icons and you will see PolenOpera.brn and PolenOpera-press.brn

When making Icons I will manually remove the background of an image with the Magic Wand Tool and/or the Eraser Tool. You want to create a new layer for each image.
