So, I NEVER ever change my background. It's always this one.

This is the coolest Portal screenshot I've found, and as such, it has stayed as my wallpaper for months :)

My current desktop sporting the nearly final and completely designed by me logo for my production company. (Please forgive my blatant self-promotion :rolleyes:)

I will need to take a new screenshot when I get home.

As for icons, I keep the following on my desktop:

  • My Computer (just in case my dock dies and I want easy access to my drives)
  • My Documents (see above)
  • Recycle Bin (you cant get rid of it easily)
  • "Temp" folder, I have a 2 TB file server, so when I want something off the file server it gets copied to the "Temp" folder, and I clean it out whenever I feel like doing housekeeping.

I have a tendency to use my desktop as a dumping place for temp files, then later clean it up, and either delete them, or store them where they should go. The desktop, for me, is the easiest place to access them while working. Often if I will be working on a project for a few days, I'll pull it out from its hiding spot and plop it on the desktop for ease of access...

I often don't want to bother with opening Steam just to open a game, hence my collection of game shortcuts on the desktop. Saves roughly one click every so often. :p
