Good program to go with backgrounds.
4 months 2 weeks ago
I've been using anime paper for a while now, and I love all the backgrounds but I think it really ruins them when you have loads of icons on top, so I looked for a dock menu. I found rocketdock and really like it,I can keep all my icons on the bottom, looking nice but out of the way, but can still enjoy my background.

Theres a link to a video of it in action,

I've been using it with Windows XP and certainly, it helps a lot to keep a clean desktop. Thanks for the advice :D
My friend told me about this free software:

It's the Icon Keeper and it helps to store your icon locations, so if you ever changed resolutions or something strange happens that rearranges your desktop, all you have to do is right-click on your desktop and go to "Enterra Icon Kepper" and click "Restore Icon Locations". The "save icon positions" is also in the same menu.

I'm so lazy to clean my desktop from all icons that I'm even lazy to use some software to keep it clean >.< I just make lots of directories and throw stuffs into them ^^'
Easy fix
right click on desktop
arrange icons by
hide icons
HURRAY!!
and the annoying pests are gone!!
now you have an awesome icon free desktop
I have a dock and a bar with programs and shortcuts to folders so i dont really need icons on the desktop
and this way the wallpapers are perfectly sitting on my desktop without annoying icons in the way.
i know everyone knows this but if it helps a few then there you go.
if you want to see your icons again just do the same thing and click show icons
right click on desktop
arrange icons by
hide icons

So I guess this is a /w/ discussion thread? I'm using LiteStep, Rocket Dock and Rainmeter. Also have Miranda IM with Yuki Nagato just for show. Renounced any form of icons and only visible things are a RSS feed from Rainmeter and the taskbar, everything else on 90% transparency or auto-hide. Because I love my Reisen-chan...
You can use any software i guess..xp , firefox.. ^_^

You could take a look at "fences" from stardock, it's still in beta stage, but it's quite nice way to put icons on your desktop without using a dock.

here's the homepage if your too lazy to google it:

What i love is that a double click on the desktop will hide the icons, also settings you can change the way it looks.
Tell me if you like it!
