these days, I never even *see* my computer's desktop

I'd be the same way, except that everything I download goes straight to the desktop, and I figure out where I want it to go from there. My dekstop is my temporary space. I even have a program running that lets me do a quick "minimize all" by dragging the cursor to a corner of the screen that I choose.

And while we're on the subject of desktops, I must recommend that program, Iconoid. I think it was first suggested to me on this board (what's new), but I want to mention it again. It's a fantastic little program. I mave it purely to give me transparent backgrounds on desktop icon text, which IMO is the single cosmetic improvement of XP over 2K. It's nice not having all those uglly boxes of contrasting color over whatever background image I have up.

Anyway, download it here. And just because everyone else is, I'm posting my desktop. Hooray for clichéd BBS activities! (and sorry for the current anime obsession).
