App to put more icons on panels

What's the name of that app that lets you squeeze multiple shortcuts into one space on the panels? I remember reading about it a long time ago but didn't have that many apps back then. Now I have too many and they won't all fit :(
 
Only issue I have with this app widget is that I find the icons are too small and annoying when you're selecting it.
 
I used to use that, but it's such an eyesore. ADW Launcher offers something much better: you can customize how many rows you want your homescreens to have. Instead of the default 4x4 homescreens, you can have up to 8x8. Yep, that's 64 icons per screen or four 4x4 widgets.
 
If you want to open control panel while it is not in My Compuetr nor in the start menu
start==> Run and type in the run text box Control panel and press enter.?
 
I put in two rows of more icons widget and I agree, it does look a bit ugly, and it takes a while to find the program without the name underneath. I think there was another one of these widget types of programs that had one big regular icon, but opened up a popup to show the widgets inside like a folder. I'd use folders, but I couldn't figure out how to rename them. I also like sense and the htc widgets too much to go to another launcher.


Edit: I figured out how to rename the folder. I think I prefer this method now since all the icons are full sized.

Sound like you want Apps Organizer. Free from the market. You can label each app, even with multiple labels (eg, Multimedia, tools, internet). The Label then becomes the name of the "folder / widget" icon on your home screen. Of course, you get to keep Sense, as this is just an app/widget.
 
Good thing I read this before I started creating all my folders! This sounds like a much easier way to do what I want.
