I'm surprised your desktop isn't ponies.

I use the default windows background.
If anybody has suggestions feel free to do it.

Not many icons on there, i mainly use the nifty windows 7 task bar + start menu + start menu search function to start up things.
Also, for me it somehow feels wrong to have folders on my desktop.

At work at the moment, which is just a black background. Here's the picture I'm currently using as my home background, which I think is both pretty sweet and fits in with my perhaps rather Spartan aesthetic:

It's from the recent solar eclipse.

Currently have icons two deep running down the left side, which is really a row more then I really like - I should do some cleaning. For those of you who have explosions of icons all over your desktops - how do you put up with it? I'd find it incredibly distracting.

Believe it or not, I have other interests that also draw good artists in.  :P Pun most certainly intended.

Aurora on small monitors:
1. Game Parameters -> Reduced Height Windows.
2. Lock taskbar to the right side of your desktop.
3. Run Resize Enable

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Dice doesn't think about ponies all the time; just most of the time.
Here's my desktop:

I am totally predictable.

When I was reorganizing my inventory to fit all by books on life and death into various bags and things, I looked at my inventory and saw that I was multigrasping a necromancer slab.  It was pretty hilarious.
I think that would be an excellent way to impart the critical lessons of life and death to the ignorant masses.

There hasn't a day gone by in the past 9 months or so I haven't thought about ponies. That's due to my daily routine involving several pony websites, though. And my programming project I work on most every day being tangentially pony related.


I lied earlier.

Ah, i love tf2, and i love the pyro.
Hence the unoriginal but certainly awesome pyro. (unoriginal because its a wallpaper provided by valve :P)

Yes, i like my desktop clean because i never really use it anyway.
All i use is the start menu, taskbar, and search function in the start menu. (and explorer, obviously)

I don't see it very often, since I use a tiling window manager, xmonad.  The panel at the top is xmobar.

Here's a dirty version.

Spoiler: A modest setup. (click to show/hide)

I'm still setting xmobar up, it's a bit spartan right now.

If you're interested in what's being run, htop, inxi.  I also use dmenu for launching applications.

The high resource usage is down to a FreeBSD machine (9-STABLE) running in QEMU, which is doing a recursive operation in the ports tree.

Not pictured: KTorrent with 92 torrents seeding, mostly TV shows that aren't available to watch where I live, as well as some Ubuntu, Arch and NetBSD install disks.
