    I'm kind of obsessed with Chartreuse, so when I was picking a new desktop, I decided to make this. Used to be plain black.

    I also loathe clutter, can't live without a quickbar, and recycle bins are for chumps (shift delete all the way).

    (Also, if you're wondering what those two plug-like icons in the quickbar are, they're a custom fix to set the laptop power to either battery saving or high performance, because Windows 7 is stupid and made it so that "balanced" is always one of the two options made available on the menu, leading to an irritating amount of clicking)

    Right click on an empty space on your desktop
    Go to view
    and deselect auto arrange icons / align icons to grid

    I must be the only one who can't see the point in dual-monitors! :confused:

    I does not become obvious for everyone, but once one used them, they become quite useful.
