Hi All
Thank you for sharing your desktops. Nice to see such variety, also in number of icons floating
around on your computer. I am a freak when it comes to desktop Icons. Yes I do put some on my
desktop, but it is only related to "work to be done within a short time frame" I try to limit it
down to as less as possible. Good example Martin with your Starfighter! I noticed that my friend Key
has the same approach when it comes to desktop icons, only he seems to have a much busier life, or
his timeframe is somewhat different
Now how is this for a suggestion to you all? I grow tired rapidly of just one fixed background, so
my desktop changes every 10 minutes. By using a free piece of software: Caledos Automatic Wallpaper
changer (http://www.caledos.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) my background varies from a selection of about 350 images. With
Lightroom and Photoshop I have created a droplet which created a wallpaper with the correct size
(1680x1050 for me) so i can easily export my favorite images to desktop background.
Here two examples. The F-16 was taken at Leeuwarden last week, the other background is a picture of
the Westzijderveld park close to my house.
Have fun !

There's also another option: Webshots. It works fine for me @ the office, and indeed, having 200+ of your own pics to look at (in the sparse moments you have the time to actually take a close look at the desktop...) is nice!Frank wrote:I grow tired rapidly of just one fixed background, so
