when i got my first laptop i used to have my game shortcuts in a folder
then i put them on the desktop instead so i didn't have to have the folder open too/search for them

now i'm just used to it? not sure if i could handle an empty desktop anymore

sylvaine's desktop

Arc reactor! :D

The app in the top left tells me the moon phase, the one in the bottom left corner lets me keep an eye on the system load, the one in the bottom right corner shows me the disk space, the one above that lets me lock/shut down quicker, and the one at the top is a timer.

I don't really have a desk, well I do but it's in to other room and is just for doing bills.

So Desktop.



I keep it pretty clean I tend to get antsy if it's too full. The background rotates through an image folder. My gadgets time/timer, date, and weather. Though the date one comes and goes on my mood.

Also whatever handful of games I'm actively playing atm.

I've been using the Little Twin Stars calendar wallpapers for about a year. And yeah I have way too many files on there...and if you can see there's a folder called "organize someday"...which I've been shoving random stuff into since before Christmas. XD

For the PC desktop, I have a background switcher so it changes every couple of minutes or so. I have nothing on my desktop, as in no apps or icons. Boring I know XD

As for my desk, it's one designed and made by my dad and uncle. It's a desk with bookshelves, so there are plenty of things: my PC (monitor, CPU, etc.), pens, papers (for printing, scratch, etc.), modules and textbooks, etc. It's less organized than I would want to, but it's more organized given my schedule :)

I just got back from a sailing trip where the closest thing I had to an art desk was a dock. And this was what was on my "desk" XD

I automatically cycle through a folder of background images, but this is what's up right now.



I should probably clean up those shortcuts; I never actually use any of them anyway.

Did I mention beads?

No cats for once though. Heh.

As far as actual computer desktop...

At work right now so the clutter consists of patient paper work, monitor for work computer, water, oatmeal cookies and my laptop. Can't show work desktop (boring and has corporate propaganda background) but this is what my laptop desktop looks like:

My physical desktop is hideously messy, so here's my Boring McPlainpants virtual one:



Featuring The Time It Is Now, a list of the things currently making my ancient computer explode, The Music It Is Now, a to-do list I ignore, and boxes to either wget illicit digital files or force-quit Firefox whenever it chokes, which is frequently.

I'm thinking of going hog-wild and changing the clock's font. I like to live on the edge.
