OT, how do you make your desktop look great? My desktop looks trash. Any recommendations such as programs/applications would be greatly appreciated.

Get a new background, Fallout is cool but it really doesn't work as a background.

Eh, I don't like rainmeter all that much, it doesn't make anything more easier. But Rocketdock is very convenient.

Object Dock and Rocket Dock are pretty cool.

I think they both have trial versions that are free.

Windowsblinds allows you to change the overall appearance of Windows.

DesktopX allows you to put all sorts of widgets and stuff.

Yes sir it is. Found it online and I just had to get it. I don't know if I'll change it for quite a while. It's just to awesome to change.

Delete all icons, hide recycle bin, and get Rainmeter.
