cinnamon menu streched

Hi everyone.

I'm kinda new to linux, mint too. was using ubuntu for a while but didn't like it, cinnamon DE is way more acceptable for usage on a desktop computer than unity. so my apologies if this topic is in a wrong place or something...

So...
I got my mint 13 installed and updated and after the update my cinnamon menu got streched. It looks totally different than the menu before the update. Normal menu looks like this:
cinnamon_1-8-2.png

and mine looks like this:
cinammon_larger.jpg
.

It is streched with a lot of unused empty space on the right side. Any way to fix this? To shrink it? Make it look like default.

Please help.

P.S.

I would also like to translate cinnamon to my native language. It is translated but not completely and with errors. How to do this? And where?

Thanks in advance

Did you installed some kind of theme?

You changed Cinnamon theme, that's it. I think it's an older theme that does not support Cinnamon 1.8.x ver. and the menu is a bit extended.
