This thread might as well be titled "Who got the coolest looking desktop?"

That is a funny desktop elnina! You do know that you can add a Run/Open CCleaner entry to the right-click content of Recycle Bin, right?

Do you really run HijackThis often enough to need a desktop shortcut?

A "Keygen" folder?

You are a cyber rebel alright!

I think this wallpaper is really relaxing. I have others but whenever I use them, I find myself coming back to this one. It's like my mental vacation!

Good point. LOL. It's plenty to run this desktop, though:

You look at that desktop with hypnotizing blue stripes long enough, you just might start to see a sailboat in the background!

. This is Ubuntu 9.04, no longer updatable (apparently it was not a "LTS" release) running on my 10+-year old desktop, which I am currently on.

Fine, I will bite:








Declaration: Since I do not spend more than couple of seconds looking at the desktop, I never saw the point of having something cool or pretty to look at. Instead, I opt for something that would ensure that I wouldn't be just staring at it.
