One semi-interesting fact!
Out of all the people who you could see the toolbar, 9 people use Firefox, 1 Chrome, and 1 IE!

2 quick things that can help you.

Quicklaunch bar on your taskbar.
And load non-steam games, or apps into Steam.
-This can not only clean up clutter, but allow you to fully access the (Shift+Tab) Steam options while running any game
(If you open the game through steam)

Maybe Fester has a snapshot goodie or two =D
You can! I was downloading a tv series to my desktop once, and it was so many rar files that it actually started putting them off of the screen!

I had to move the icons to another folder so i could see the rest of the icons!

Chrome is pretty, but last I heard somewhat unsecure, I wouldn't do any banking on it.

They may have patched it, but can't go wrong with Firefox.

Thanks for the thing, but I may need to sit down with you when you have some free time so you can at least get me started, I tried toying around with it but am completely lost. At one point my brain froze up and I came to about 30 minutes later and I had drooled all over my favorite shirt!

One reason why I have made my Taskbar twice as thick, so when I've lots of windows open (sich as working and using MSN at the same time) it makes it soo much easier to find the windows I want.

What the screenie doesn't show is the stuck pixel I cannot persuade to budge at the bottom of the screen. And 4:3 suits me fine btw!

Commenting some desktops:

Xexes, MountieXXL & Jonnywhy, lovely wallpapers there!

Selby, nice to see Sims 2 on yours; especially the Pets expansion. :) I used to play that game when I had nothing better in hand. Too bad it's not multiplayer...

Supernova, LOL @ laptop. :) I prefer KDE to Gnome, but it's good to know that you can use *NIX too. :)

YamNivek, of course, I do love many of Hilary Duff's music, and she has a great voice, so. :)

Yeah, again, quote : "You have to sit down with it for a while to get the hang of it".
You know where to find me.
But no, I'm not on EST time.

Anyone else use Samurize?
