    I suggest to change that text that currently says "Your Selection Has Arrived". It doesnt seem to make too much sense at the moment. And maybe change the smoke to me a little more transparent and wispy (is that a word? Who cares.).

    I'd change the font, and what do you mean with your selection has arrived? Also maybe mirror it, so the marine is on the right, cuz most people have their icons set on the right of their desktop

    Yes, the text is going to be remade and i can change so that it says something like You're selection instead... And i like him on that side but i can make two versions of it...

    There is a litle space betwen the guy and the left edge so there is space for 1 row of icons.

    Yeah i know, I like him aswell on that side, it's jsut that alot of wallpapers get messed up by the icons on your desktop, they hide the best parts of it, imo that very cool concept art doesn't diserver to be covered with icons, but yeah make 2 versions of it <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->

    Typically, a desktop wallpaper should have plenty of one-color blank space, and the majority of its graphical stuff (like a person) in the center, or off to the right, as the left is usually where all icons are at.

    This does not apply to my desktop. You can see why.

    Holy christ mole, enough icons on your desktop!? sheesh, let me get a pic of mine and let's compare. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    And then there are those of us who don't follow the icon placement crowd, and place icons in a way that avoids the background picture:

    my icons are three deep going from the left side of the screen to the right. this would cover up only the marine and leave everything else <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    DrunkenBozo -- I used to do the same thing when I had a wallpaper that didn't take up the entire size of my desktop.  Course, now that my desktop is infested by Hera's landing pad I put them wherever.

    And I'm trying to figure out exactly how Moleculor functions like that without spending approximately half his time searching for the right icon to click.  Ah well, at least your icons are neatly organized.  <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    According to my experience with my desktop icons, you seem to memorize where certain icons are located (the ones that you click on most of the time).
