bwtr · 19th February 2007, 05:02

This is my cluttered desktop, which changes pretty well daily, but can anyone --

1. Tell me what I am REALLY missing in my stuff?

2. Show there own, perfect, simple, desk top array!

just something for fun moments thoughts.

1. A folder for unused desktop icons

Hugo · 19th February 2007, 18:54

That's a lot of shortcut and folder !

Here is mine on my laptop

jbshorty · 19th February 2007, 19:11

Here's mine. I also find it's difficult to locate the correct icon, but for a completely different reason

...

KevinSp. I really DID have one of those at one time!. I regularly close down or delete apps and there shortcuts and, what do you know, the next day that is exactly what I need to solve a problem!

Very envious of thos who can keep a neat desktop.

KevinSp · 20th February 2007, 07:13

I know how you feel. I have to clean mine off constantly. I'm actually trying out some of Litestep shells for some different desktop setups.

laughingnome · 20th February 2007, 12:05

Here is mine !

Quite different and "minimalist"

On "Wall paper" an exercise in Blender2.42 (i have to work much more to obtain what i can do in Carrara 5 pro)

I do Have more than 100 softwares

on my computer, everything is very organised (it's really important when you want to go fast !)

bwtr · 20th February 2007, 23:19

You won't believe it of course, but my cluttered desktop is designed so I can work fast! For example I have those shortcuts which take me directly to the apps folders in the programme files (which I regularly access).

Diego, I have NEVER seen a screen that clean before. WOW!

bwtr · 21st February 2007, 01:51

I have been looking at my oldest sons desktop,he is 52, it's much like mine!

Then I had a look at one of my grandsons desktop. I am tidy!

Now there is a comment that someone is SURE to make on this post!

diego1968 · 21st February 2007, 08:00

I do have access to all my favourite apps with "Dashboard"

and or the "Dock"

on my Mac with a simple "glide", so it prevents my desktop to be full with too much shortcuts icons

bwtr · 21st February 2007, 08:16

Shall we put that on the list that Mac owners have a cheat sheet for shortcuts then!

rickei · 22nd February 2007, 04:03

I wouldn't really call it a cheat...more like an advantage hehe!

thats the dock at the bottom. it's only visible when you pass your cursor near the Bottom of th screen...then it pops up.

Dann-O · 23rd February 2007, 12:49

Hey mind is pretty cluttered too. Mine is like a messy desk things I use all the time wher eI need them new stuff floating around. I can still find things. I live in China and ca't read Chinese my wife is Chinese so there is two different languages on the computer and her stuff and my stuff. I keep recent pics I did as desktops. I use it as a test for the picture. I leave it up a day see if I want to change it.

bwtr · 23rd February 2007, 12:56

Dann-o we are alike in two ways then. I change the desk top images about once a week. Usually it's my latest 3D creation--if it's not good enough it's replaced pretty quickly and gets put into a 2nds folder.

Though I would call your desktop very neat.

Dann-O · 23rd February 2007, 14:26

Yeah I did see your desktop and go wow. Everyone else is very minimalist which is good too but I like to have quick access to a few new things I am trying out and photo's I want to print. Also I like seeign what I have been doing I often pick out a problem after a day or so and rework it.

Piem · 15th March 2007, 22:53

Well well, the one with the laptop

bwtr · 16th March 2007, 04:10

Piem. It took me a while to focus and find that you DID have some app icons on your screen.

My son is about to give me a very up to date,fast, computer and asked me what I REALLY wanted to be loaded in.

Photoshop and Carrara5Pro.

Now thats a VERY clean screen!
