Firstones Desktop Thread!

Post your desktop! I'm curious as to how people have set theirs up. :)

I personally like a VERY clean desktop. So I got rid of all the icons and used numerous quicklaunch type bars. :)

description of what your looking at:

[url]http://www.b5-blender.com/temp/wall2.jpg[/url]

ezpop = quicklaunch (16 items)
web = MSIE
mail = Outlook
pen/paper = wordpad
eye thingy = another quicklaunch (8 items)
CPU monitor stuff built in. :)
the E mean my recycle bin is Empty
the four monitors are four seperate task bars, REALLY neat feature. Lets say for instance you were SUPPOSED to be doing school. sooo fill task bar 1 up with school stuff, switch to taskbar 2. everything in taskbar 1 is hidden, leading taskbar 2 to be filled up with forums, games, etc. Oops..parents! *click back to taskbar 1* all school stuff is back, no sign of the games. (Unless they are making noise...tsk tsk). pretty handy overall.

the text window is an address bar, beit for folders or websites or programs.

the clock. (Duh)

the arrow is another quick launch (8 items)
the down arrow is the start menu programs list.

then at the side I have MSIW, Outlook, wordpad PSP7, Blender, Trillian. :)


your turn. :)

    Again, the simple approach. Clutter on my computer annoys me.

    I've, personally, always cared for a clean desktop too, but I also subscribe to the theory that if I put everything in one place, I'll always know where it is!

    This is very clean for me... I've got folders labeld "Old Desktop" where I dump old stuff .... lol

    Due to people posting neat desktops, I decided to skin mine. Hope it doesn't take too much extra ram as I am already heavily reliant on Virtual Mem :(

    What theme is that, RC?
  • Random ChaosRandom Chaos Actually Carefully-selected Order in disguise
    Its...um..."Beakon" for WindowBlinds. Though I modified it a little...
