I like how Dipstikk has a big, shiny Mac Screen and yet uses a low res background

I'm pretty sure it's the default one that comes with the previous version of Ubuntu.

It came with Ubuntu 11.04, but it wasn't the default. I also modified it slightly because on the original the orange was lighter where the fins overlapped the bodies, which looked like crap.

And yeah, I really like it too.

Wouldn't it have been easier to tell her his name (since it's a male name) and look it up on google images??

The first time I watched the music video for Monsoon I thought it was a girl,

Even with the singing in the background.

Are you going out of your way to have the minimum amount of desktop icons or something?

1. What's wrong with desktop icons
When I log on my computer, I want to be greeted by something beautiful. Not a load of ugly icons. It's just as easy to pin shortcuts to your start menu (One more click, how horrible!) or with the advent of Windows 7, to your bottom bar.

I also try to keep my icons as tidy as I can and, if possible, symmetrical. I'd have thought you as a mac fan would understand the importance of presentation over core efficiency here.

I just stuck to desktop icons when using Windows 7, it really didn't bother me seeing icons all over my wallpaper, I just don't use them anymore on Mac since I have the dock. Only icons on my desktop are the hard drive and whatever external items and CD's/DVD's are plugged in.
