TUAW wants to see your Desktop

Since everyone seemed to like the Desktop picture we posted the other day, I had an idea. Here's a pic of my current Desktop. If you click on the picture, you'll get a look at the full-sized version over at my Flickr account. In any case, I thought it would be fun if everyone shared what their Desktop looks like. So, click on the Finder, go to Finder—>Hide Others, and then hit Apple (Command) + Shift + 3 . This will take a screen grab of your machine, so make sure no private information is showing. Then, post the pic somewhere online and leave a link in the comments to your Desktop, so we can see how everyone's Mac environment is looking these days.

Update: Leo from fscklog just sent me a message pointing to this great OS X Desktop picture Flickr group. Check it out.

Here's my desktop from my PB G4/1.5 17": http://dwight.dnsalias.org/DesktopPic051007.jpg It's Fall and the holidays are approaching so I vary my desktop quite a bit to get me into a pleasant mood. Walt, your column is the first thing I read when I get the WSJ off my porch on Thursday morning. Keep up the excellent writing.

#21 (Mark) Where did you get your "I Wish I was a Mac" wallpaper? It's just what I need to drive my IT folks nuts.

Ah. That explains it, CK. I feel less stoopid. Slightly.

These aren't Dahsboard widgets, but Konfabulator widgets...

Thanks again, CK. I downloaded and installed Widget Preferences. I can't find "Level of Window" setting, however. If I click the Window menu in the Finder, it just gives me the options for Close, Minimize, and Widgets. Your help is much appreciated!

http://danpritchard.com/photos/Misc/desktop.png I love this desktop picture. I can't say exactly why, but it's been on there for a while.

Thanks, CK. Next stoopid question though: how do I "set the widgets level as Desktop?"
