I picked a workspace with nothing on the screen cause I'm in love with the background.

Running Gentoo Linux, Gnome 2.5.91 (Garnome).

Hey ya know what... maybe this is the place for this:

I got XP... every time I set a desktop, it resets back to that fucking hillside when I restart. Anyone got any clues about why it might be doing that?

Yep & Yep

Magic man- Just did a little searching on google and the windowblinds site for icons, changing em is simple, just right click->customise for a file.

I had to wade through a fair amount of flat and ugly ones though.

Background... this one probably from deviantart, but normally i'll pull one from Conceptart.org or 12ozprophet.

sadistikdreams, Donnie Darko freaked me out. I think I'd go crazy with a desktop like that.

Here's mine... it's not pretty and it's kinda cluttered, but it's functional. My desktop cracks me up everytime I see it - gotta love Blizzard's april fools jokes

My pretty boring Windows desktop. The background changes pretty frequently.

Here's mine:

Until I can find that great shell replacement program I used to use, this one will have to do. Used desktop x for the neat little cpu/memory monitor at the bottom and used windowblinds for the gui.

Yep, the ubiqitous Shrooms wallpaper and the clean desktop look.

Here is my new desktoop.



I use Rainmeter with a modified skin, Samurize for the weather, Rainlender and Mobydock. The background was scanned by me, which is why the quality is not very good =P

Hey Latch, where did you get that desktop image? I would love to get it. Thanks!

Mine's a minimalist desktop with a maximum emphasis placed on the quick launch. 32 icons, about 30 actual programs on that ol' quicklaunch. Yep. If I ever have a shortcut on my desktop, it gets deleted IMMEDIATELY. No clutter here ladies and gents.

Haven't added to this in a while. Here's my latest.

bltzkriegmcanon

Where'd you get DesktopX from Sixate? That's pretty damn cool displaying all the info that would normally be displayed in task manager plus some other nice info.

DesktopX is a part of the one and only program that I actually paid for on my PC. The entire set is called Object Desktop, and it includes many programs and costs $50 a year. DesktopX can do many things, but the weather display and uptime are the only thing that DX is on my desktop. DX has a ton of different themes and objects which you can use to customize your desktop to your liking. I use Windowblinds(part of Object Desktop) to skin Windows.


Take a look here at Object Desktop: http://www.stardock.com/products.asp

The program that dislpays all my PC stats is called Sysmertix3. You can download it here: http://www.xymantix.com/sysmetrix/download.html
Best part is it's a free program. The skin I'm using is called Ripped(Small). Get it here: http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.as...ing&library=28

You can also browse around and find another skin you may like more. There's a shitload of them.

Wincustomize has skins for all the programs that are a part of Object Desktop, and some others, also.
