Mine is pretty plain. I don't mind a messy desk, or a messy floor, but I can't stand it when my desktop gets cluttered.

Hey it's not my fault I'm not familiar with everything she is in. I actually don't watch a lot of TV shows. :blush:  :glare: I looked it up and Elisha Cuthbert is her real name.. Kim Bauer is just a character she plays on TV. At any rate the wallpaper was based on the actress not the character.

I had a desktop like that before. I changed the icon of my HD to the moon, and didn't name it anything. It looked real cool.

Oh man that's bad-ass, where did you get that wallpaper? I can't find a single good Hellsing wallpaper.

Tetsu, what mods have you got on OSX? not the programs, but the themes. if you know what i mean.
For example, mine is using iMetal.
Ive also got ShadowClipboard 3, Relaunch, MenuCalendarClock in the menu bar, Docktop on the left, Overflow hidden via dockless and linked to F1 by OneKey, sizzlingkeys for iTunes management with various links to extra buttons on my Revolution VX, Growl, APE  um.... i think thats it.
and just to clarify, I dont have the HD on the desktop. I far prefer clicking on the Macintosh Face, and use the desktop as a cutting ground for temporary items.
