I have all my icons in the shortcuts folder. But then that does add another step to loading things. I know someone who has so many icons on his desktop they are overflowing onto his second monitor.

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper

I can't stand icons on my desktop and have none.
They are just too much clutter.

The idea is to "un"-tick the box (for a desktop shortcut) when you install new programs

My desktop has precisely *two* icons, "My computer" and "Recycle Bin" and that's the way I like it!

(Unfortunately I can't show it to the rest of you as the pic I use as wallpaper is a little bit rude )

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper

Here is mine of today, going with a modded luna theme, and large icons, with a bliss styled wallpaper.

All effects turned off on computer apart from drop shadows and themes.

Toying with getting Yztoolbar working though.
