    Show off your desktop!

    Here's a little bit of off topic fun! We all have desktops, some of us are proud of them, others ashamed. Sometimes your looking for a new way to spruce up the stale look of the old thing.

    This is a thread for all of us to share our desktops, be it to show off your minimalist design or proudly boast about how cluttered with icons yours is. Or perhaps it can simply be a place to browse for new ideas.

    I hope we can get some good involvement on this because sharing is caring, and we all care for each other here, right? I for one am particularly interested in seeing what some of the ASUS guy's desktops look like, assuming (or rather hoping) they find the time to join in!

    So I will get the ball rolling! Here is my current desktop:

    In win7 if you hold your curor just to the right of the clock
    the whole desktop will go transparent (unless disabled).

    I am running rainmeter with the omnimo skin. The transparency comes from running an app called "FULLGLASS.exe" and pairing it with a dark theme.

    Haha, yeah the full name of the folder is "Quit being lazy and organize these files" its basically where I throw all my desktop clutter that doesn't belong in the recycling bin.

    Looks like he did the work himself guy, a kind request to share may provide that which you seek?
