I want to make a new wallpaper for my background and am thinking about removing all of my icons from the desktop.

(as you can see it's pretty cluttered with icons and this is after I removed all my steam game icons)

 

I was thinking about putting the shortcuts in my start menu but I don't know if you can put categories in it (I never use the start menu so I'm inexperienced with it). If you guys have any suggestions or hints of what might look cool or interesting for me I would love it.

 

If you also want to show off your desktop I'd really like that. I'm still looking for inspiration on what to make

No... I'm not ready for my thread to die, not yet.... nooooo......

God over the last year the 15th has became such a clusterfuck, I stopped attending a few months ago, I feel like the unit is getting to big to manage, so many officers are leaving it's ridiculous. 

 

I have a sick mod for Windows 8 (is available for Windows 7) that organizes desktop icons hold on

Stardock fences 

 

Some how I misspelled Linux on a file... gg

I'd be happy to help you build a wallpaper or something, startdock fences is like 4.99 or something like that, I think I might have another copy ( I don't think my brother used the copy I got him but I'll have to check)

 

EDIT>> I guess he did end up installing it

 

but here's where I got the fences

I only have firefox, computer, games folder, software folder, trash in that order on the bottom center of the desktop

looks clean and it's better than stardock or whatever because that would require extra startup programs.

Might as well buy a Mac and GTFO!

 

:lol:

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

Better performance of course I've turned icons off :D

 

-snip-

What did you do to replace your desktop icons? did you put them in the start menu because I don't know if I can as you can see I have a lot of icons
