How do you arrange your desktop?

Featured Replies

I have no idea what compelled me to post this, but here it goes:

 

 

 

I seem to be gettin more and more shorcut icons all the time as i find more software to download, i found a good way to arrange my icons on my desktop:

So really, how do you deal with your icons/arrange them?

Isn't this basically the same as this?

No, this is about shortcut icon lay outs, not for screenies of your background.

Right-click -> Arange Icons By -> Untick 'Show Desktop Items'

 

 

 

 

 

Quick-Launch and start menu ftw.

I don't have any icons on my desktop, except if it something temporary like a "new folder".

5 folders on the right, rest of what I need is on my dock, screenshot here.

 

 

 

Sometimes I just have no icons on my desktop, only the Macintosh HD :P

Mine looks just like that, except I only have 1 folder and the HD.

This is exactly the same discussion.....

 

 

 

 

 

As for me...I'm a neat freak.

 

 

 

One bar on the side that that's it.

 

 

 

That is "POST picture of your desktop"

 

This is "HOW do you arrange your desktop"

 

i let my computer do it for me since i ever so often do the right click "arrange" thing.

Just gotta add one thing, any item on the left of my desktop is something that is being used atm. For example, it could be a picture i'm editing, or some work i'm finishing up. when i'm done, it goes in the corresponding folder :).

Auto Arrange + Align to grid ---> Untick Auto Arrange ---> Drag Trash to bottom right hand corner.

The difference is superfluous.

 

 

 

 

 

ON topic, though, I have nothing on my desktop except for recycling bin.

My greatest ambition is to kill every member of the human race.

However I am a realist and therefore know that I probably wont be able to.

I just have My Computer, My Documents, Recycle Bin, AIM, Firefox, Word, and Google Earth, for quick access. (I'm a Google Earth freak lol). Also some folders that contain programs/files. I just put them around the corners of my desktop.

 

 

 

I do sometimes get the crap file transfers over AIM, those clutter it up, but I have my downloads go to a folder in My Documents called Downloaded Files, biggest folder in my pc, even bigger than RuneScape screenshots.

I have all important applications and tools along with my computer and my documents in the top left corner. The top right corner has all my games. The bottom left corner contains all my protection software (Fire wall, antivirus, ect.), and the bottom right corner contains my folder which has all my already used install exe's and my non used desktop icon folder along with my recycling bin.

Great minds think alike. 8-)

I just put things in corners based off of what they are. ::'

I usually just dump all my downloaded stuff in a folder, then rediscover it several months later.

 

I have two 19" screens, so space isn't really an issue for me. Plus, I don't really get annoyed having to trawl through a sea of icons.

Just normal. A whole crapload of shortcuts on the desktop. I'm trying to force my parents to get a new computer so I can have this ones, but I doubt I'll get ahold of it.

Mine has a lot of shortcuts:
