While I love the background, the cluttered mass of icons makes my eye twitch. A modicum of organization, please.
The only perfect background is to disable all icons and keep it black
I see a background
And I want it painted black
No icons anymore
I want my desktop black
You know if you really want to see an empty black nothing you can just close your eyes.
I've used and enjoyed that kind of setup a while back, but my new favourite is to have something that rotates different backgrounds. macOS has their dynamic wallpapers which you can set to cycle through different ones on a regular basis, which I really like. I still don't like having any icons, though.
On Android, I use Muzei to get a different artwork as my background every day. It's also very nice.
Same. I would go insane with a desktop like that.
Hah, as if you'd ever see the icons behind the millions of things I have running
Yeah what is this 2006?
Bonus point if you replace Chrome with Mozilla!
Insallah my brother in the Firefox jihad
Just change the icon to the chrome ones.
firefox, and get an adblocker on it
It looks like he has chrome pinned to his task bar in the bottom left.
You cannot make enough shortcuts for the elderly.
You can, but a desktop composed of entirely shortcuts to chrome I suspect wouldn't be enough.
There is also a second desktop icon in the upper left, in the 3rd column.
Firefox is a much easier icon to find.
Cool picture. But Chrome? Why?
It's like a "water this way" sign in the middle of a desert. The better solution is to get Librewolf and replace the icon with a Chrome one.
Good way to end up with passwords written on sticky notes
Right click desktop, create new, folder: Junk
Drag drop everything but that chrome icon into Junk.
Needs this to be in the middle.
Div mentioned
If you really wanted to have a good time, you could screen-shot everything as is and make that the desktop, then put all the real shortcuts into a folder on the desktop anywhere and watch the fun ensue
Eta: for extra entertainment, don't forget to hide the Taskbar
The shortcut was at the tip of the penis
I understood that reference.
Instead of fixing the symptom, maybe you could address the underlying problem of all that clutter on the desktop. ….or pin it somewhere it won’t be encroached by new files
It's pinned to the taskbar. If my own father is anything to go by, trying to clean up their desktop is a futile and temporary effort.
There are at least twice as many icons s on his desktop as on mine!
It is pinned to the taskbar
Also the first icon in column 4
All of those files look very important and need to stay where they are...
...then he complains i made a mess.
Can you share the background?
Here - you should be able to download the full res by clicking "Download the original image"
Most of the time my desktop is covered, so I use folders on the toolbar
What in the world
That's pretty funny! Thanks for making me smile.
Legit makes my day to make someone smile :)
Didn't think about icons being on a grid, eh? Whoever made this had to turn it off to place the Chrome icon there. Amateur move
Woop
That's awesome - nice work!
You use desktop icons?
Never use your desktop to store shortcuts, unless they are very temporary, and then clear up often.
You have a taskbar and start menu to organise and find everything you need, you can even do startup applications.
