Simplistic vs. "Cluttered but Organized" desktop

my desktop is pretty bad, i need to organize itZumaJones07

right click, sort by date, name, or w.e... organized!

Cluttered but organized.. Im too lazy to delete and stuff the folders. Its like my room is messy but I know where my stuff is.

If you can describe my desktop, you'll have your answer.

I guess you could call mine minimalist. I have 6 icons (2 of which are quick launch taskbars), the Windows Sidebar and ASUS Probe showing my temps and fan speeds.

Clean with an empty desktop (besides the recycle bin).

Same, I love it that way for some reason.

Where does your Recycle Bin reside?

I prefer mine clean as well.

I consider this clean

I have a few things on the Windows desktop because they were there when I first started using them I think.
On Mac I just have the hard drive and then the dock thing.

So I guess simplistic. Don't usually or ever use the minimalistic desktops with just a solid colour and a small picture, but some of those pictures are nice.

edit:
picture of the Windows desktop from a few days ago, and one of the Mac from a while before that:

If I'm working on something I'll put it on the desktop.

I prefer it clean. I have rocketdock installed but I hardly ever use it. I can just press the start button and then type in a few letters of what I am looking ofr and it is just as fast.judog1

I love rocketdock, big icons so is easy to click and store more shortcuts. Pretty much a big eff you to macs and their simplicity b.c you can have it for your pc too.

I like having stuff on the desktop. If it's totally barren it seems like a waste.

People who wallpaper their desktop with icons are insane though.

I like the clean look but sometimes if you need to "point" something to something else its so much easier to drop it on the desktop :P. I hate having to click click click click go back click click click and then save the file in the right folder. It takes tooooooooo long ;)

I prefer mine clean... Even the Recycle Bin is gone. horgen123

Same here.

Minimalist

Clean. Anything I don't use on a regular basis gets stuck in the "bullsh!t" folder.

This one is me. I brought my laptop into school one day to work on something and we had a good laugh on this matter.

They are just trying to get onto you for your attention because your avatar and signature are so cool.

The only thing on my Desktop is my recycle bin and Turbo Booster Widget. I keep all the icons for my most comonly used programs on the task bar.

Judge for yourself.

Mine is in the bottom right corner. lol

I always like a pretty clean desktop.

Here's my ugly random desktop. No rhyme or reason here folks.

Don't ask why I have a programs folder that isn't doing it's job right.achilles614

I actually like this wallpaper. Nice contrast of colors in it. Your shortcuts might not have any rhyme or reason to others, but for you, I guess they work.
