Ok, I'm very strange and delusional [I'm sure some of you will agree :P] so whilst I was bored I came up with this idea. I like seeing what other people have got on their desktops in the <B>Your Desktop/Wallpaper</B> thread, and I guess others do too--so, let's show. ;) Here be mine:

Image

001. ObjectDock, the program that generates my bar at the bottom [23-39]
002. Google Earth, allows me to see the world in a satellite view. Bit like that A-U map we have.
003. My Pictures
004. QuickTime Player
005. CuteFTP, the FTP program I use for my sites
006. Adobe Photoshop 7.0, my graphics program
007. My Computer
008. iTunes, my music player
009. My Music

019. MSN Messenger 7.5, my IM program
020. Spybot - Search & Destroy, another one of my anti-virus programs
021. AVG Free, same as the above
022. Webshots Desktop, a program that downloads photos
023. The clock
024. CuteFTP, see #5
025. QuickTime Player, see #4
026. PowerDVD, see #11
027. Windows Media Player
028. iTunes, see #8
029. Internet Explorer
030. My Documents
031. My Pictures
032. Microsoft Word, see #13
033. MSN Messenger 7.5, see #19
034. Adobe Photoshop 7.0, see #6
035. MSN main window
036. MSN chat window--talking to my best friend Rachel
037. iTunes--currently playing <I>Curses</I>--Bullet For My Valentine
038. Adobe Photoshop main window
039. Internet Explorer window--ImageShack.us
040. Desktop featuring Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist from <I>Brokeback Mountain</I>

Let's see if anyone else is as strange as I am ;)

I have way to many things on my desktop. I am hopeless at saving things in the right spot. :P

http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/332/desktop1bf.jpg


So, here goes... (from the top, left to right)

1- A pic of my little brother and his friends that I'm ment to be sending somewhere.

2- My computer.

3- A scan of a page out of my friends indo book, goodness knows why.

4- Paintshop Pro.

5- Some page I was working on before I added it to my site.

6- WinMX, a music downloading program. And I dont use it; my older brother does, and I have no idea why it appears on my desktop too.

7- An award I made for some contest...
8- iTunes setup. Thats what it says, and I think it came with quicktime, when I updated it.

9- Pacemaker, a program that does something to music if you use it. Again, something my bro downloaded.

10-Spybot- a anti-virus program.

11- A desktop I did of Kiera Knightley, and for some reason didnt save it in the right place.

12- My Network Places.

13- It calls itself 'setupEM4122.exe', and I have no idea what it is!

14- The top image of a LJ layout I made...

15- A pic of my older bro and his girlfriend on their formal night that I resized and sent to her.

16- Google desktop. Dunno.

17- 'wbsmp.exe'. Again, dunno.

18- Another award I made.

19- Recycle bin.

20- Photoshop Elements, 2.0

21- An icon to go with the LJ layout I made.

22- Another pic from my brothers formal.

23- 'Untitled-1.psd'. Goodness knows.

24- Webshots desktop. I download stock photo's from Webshots, and use said program.

25- Another award. I must have been feeling a bit 'cant be bothered saving it in the right place' that day.

26- Internet explorer.

27- A folder for my playlist. Its easier than going through 100's of songs everytime I want a certain selection.

28- I think I saved a starwars trailer onto my PC for something.

29- An affiliate button for somewhere...

30- A Cedric Diggory avvy I did for a request.

31- Zango messenger. It in a combo of Yahoo, Aim, and Msn. But I never use it. :P

32- Yet another award!! I think this one was a thank you for Ellem, who helped judge the contest.

33- Printers and Faxes. Some random, yet essential, folder that lives on my dektop.

34- Folder for homework.

35- An essay I wrote on the film 'The Mighty'. I didnt even get to see the whole film, and I still got A+. :P

36- Another affiliate button.

37- A folder for the most recent things I've made, that I'm yet to add to my sites.

38- Lol. Another award.

39- And another. And they're all for the same contest, include thank-yous for the judges.

40- Its called 'Scheduled Tasks', and its one of those default folders.

41- A folder for all the music I've composed/transposed in Sibelius. Which isnt much.

42- Another award. I was really lazy that day. Didnt save anything anywhere useful.

43- And another. I have a jpg and a psd copy of each, before I delete them. Which I obviously havent gotten round to yet...

44- Mozilla Firefox. But I actually use the link in the toolbar, which makes it just another thing cluttering my desktop.

45- 'b'. Goodness knows what that is. But its a pic I made, or something.

46- hehe. You going to kill me, but its another award. :P

47- The psd image of a layout I made for LJ.

48- MSN messenger. I dont get into it via that link, so its yet another redundant desktop icon.

49- Age of Empires III, trial. My little brother downloaded it, and it automatically goes onto all the desktops.

50- My documents.

51- A folder for some music a friend wanted printed.

52- A folder containing some songs I downloaded for a music project.

53- A font that I have yet to check that its installed and put in some dusty corner of my PC.

54- A folder with a collection of photos of my great grandma, for burning onto a disk.

55- Another award. I am so repeditive. And I really must delete those.

56- A Kiera Knightley desktop.

57- Some program that I've never used, and dont know what its for.

58- Image Ready. Comes with Photoshop.

59- Untiled-3 copy. Says it all.

60- Inter Actual player. A program for watching DVD's, but I use a different one now.

61- A thing on the porduction techniques of a movie we watched in school.

62- Fonts. A folder for downloaded fonts, so I know where to look for them. But unforntunately they dont all end up in there.

63- 'top.psd'. The photoshop version of #14.

64- Untitled-2.psd . I wouldnt have a clue.

65- Another iTunes setup. Now I'm just confused.

66- Yet another award.

67- A jpg copy of the Kiera desktop.

68- A folder I use for redundant desktop icons/folders that I still need to check they arent vital to the running of the computer.

69- Photoshop 7.0. I got it off a friend, but I prefer Elements.

70- Animation shop. It came with Paintshop, which I got off a relative. :) I use it for animating stuffs.

71- 'New text document' is, well, a new text document. I think its a bit of code I found somewhere, and want to save.

72- Quicktime installer. 'nuff said.

73- Another bit of my assignment on 'The Mighty' film.

74- A folder for some files I transfered from our laptop.

75- Another page out of my friends indo book.

76- A texture I made that didnt really work.

78- A shortcut to a penguin racing game. :) I do play it once in a while. Not much though.

79- A larger copy of a Kiera dektop I made.

80- A jpg copy of something.

--------

Hows that!? 80 icons on my desktop!! I really should clean it up. I have so many copies of things. :duh:

But I cant be bothered right now... one day I will, though. :P

close all windows, and press the button on your keyboard that says Print Screen/SysRq

your keyboard might be different from mine, but mine is at the top right.
