What does your desktop look like? (V4)

Because it wouldn't let me reply to the last one.



New laptop new resolution new wallpaper

I think it looks nice. The icons on the launcher are great (apart from the monitor one).

Adrian Smith is a fucking genius.

Any one of those would make a fine wallpaper.

There is a lack of icons since I'm between computers at the moment.



Though actually, Molluck's Assistant just made me think of something....

I can't stand desktop icons. On Ubuntu I can find any programme in about half a second by pressing the Super key and typing the first few letters of its name - I assume Windows has something similar?

I like to be able to see my background... well, not so much the current one since it's mostly blank, but usually.

I find desktop icons handy for quick access. But I hate it when there are loads and loads of them. 3 Columns maximum for me.

I don't know why but I love dull/ boring/ dichotomous desktops that insinuate a sort of drab dystopia...for some reason that appeals to me. For example I think Dynamithix has the best desktop atm.

Windows Vista/7 has a search bar in the start menu. As soon as you start typing the name of the program it imidiatly starts searching. The results will constantly update and will appear as a list in the start menu.

The desktop is cool because you don't have to search, but when there's too much it may become a problem.

In Windows 7, they got rid of the quick launch bar so now you simply pin programs onto your task bar via clicking and dragging or right clicking and clicking "pin to task bar".

Because of this, I use my task bar as a place to keep my icons.

The only icon on my desktop is the recycle bin because it can't be pinned to the task bar.

I maximize the size of the recycle bin because huge icons look cleaner and nicer.

Yes it can, but it requires a specific method to do so.
