Since I was asked, here is my current Windows XP desktop.
I keep the desktop clean, it’s my “inbox” where things are then filed or moved. The taskbar fades out when the mouse ISN’T over it, and yeah Xentient Thumbnails to get the icon of an image to display as the image itself (a la the icon on my desktop).
I’ve tried to keep my desktop clean. But like my mind, it’s an EPIC FAIL.
My computer desktop is clean as a whistle… my ACTUAL desktop however, is a complete clusterf*ck of IT wreckage, reference books and teetering paper avalanches waiting to happen.
This is it on a good day:

The picture ‘behind’ is one of a series of Japanese prints we used to have hanging in our 1st house. Spooky!!
