Bah you call those desktops? where are the thousand and one icons and files and stuff covering 97% of the 1600x1050 desktop with the three extra desktop folders on the desktop to hold all the other crap that doesn't fit. That is a real mans desktop, not some clean almost nothing on it wishy washy weak in the knees girly man's desktop.

Well, mine is usually like that, but sometimes I try to organize everything into the absurdly named folders

It goes back to being filled with icons after a few days though

I have a hard time filling my 28 inch monitor with those little Icons...

Clean and simple.

Haha, same here. I just have one "storage folder" sitting on the DT to where I clean up all the icons when it starts to get busy.

Glad you mentioned Wallpaper master, I was using a different switcher (Adolix), but I like Wallpaper master better.

Only thing I'd like to see added is the ability to save "playlists".

That reminds me, I've always wanted to take a screenshot of my sons desktop with the shortcuts scattered all over, remove all the shortcuts and use the screenshot as the desktop. I'd love to see him clicking all over and nothing happening.

I humbly admit defeat

Can't get any cleaner than yours unless you took the wallpaper off, too

Edit due to others typing faster than me
