  Wow! Some of the wallpapers are really cool. I don’t really like cartoons though 😛
  Windows Aero was kind of a divine touch to the PC interface 🙂

• kabinon July 22, 2008 1:35 pm

  wow! its amazing.

  Very cool backgrounds. I am using the very plain, very simple Vista background. Since my Firefox is always open, I never actually see the background so I don’t see much of a reason to change it. Maybe I will one day, but I only ever see the Firefox anyways. 😛

  Sorry, number 28.

• Granton July 22, 2008 9:54 am

  Thanks Daniel. You’re clearly a rugby fan – note the spelling of the image 😉

  If I’d known mine would go up I would have sent in the wallpaper of one of my sites funny t-shirts. Next time. cheers

  Daniel, sorry wasn’t meant as an insult, but point taken linklurv much appreciated 😉 (Couldn’t link the actual graphic to my sciencetext item could you?

  @David Bradley, this was not a linkbait, more like sharing the linklove with the readers.

• Rajaie AlKoranion July 21, 2008 4:11 pm

  Those are some really nice icon arrangements, now to steal them!

• David Bradleyon July 21, 2008 11:17 am

  Ooh, nice linkbait! I explained the rationale behind my desktop (#27) on Sciencetext.com in an item on how to boost your productivity with a new desktop wallpaper. Feel free to comment and leave a link to this Top 30

  my fave is #6, so clean :), where’s yours daniel ???

• Medical Transcription Blogon July 20, 2008 11:26 pm

  Thanx for including mine, #16.

• grevenon July 20, 2008 7:25 pm

  Thanks for including mine (#4).

  That wallpaper (Angel) was a gift for my Girlfriend that I’ve made. 🙂

  That is Windows XP.

• Rick Vaughnon July 20, 2008 3:24 pm

  Lots of Vista in there seems like alot of hypocrites.

• redwall_hpon July 20, 2008 3:09 pm

  Thanks for including mine (#2), and so close to the top too. 😀

  I LOL’ed at #7. That’s a lot of icons. Is it hard to find the icon your looking for when you want to launch a program?

  I prefer to keep my desktop nice and clean, as you can tell from my screencap. I keep my most-used apps permanently in my Dock though, as well as Stacks for my Applications folder, Home directory, and Downloads folder.

  Thanks Daniel for including my desktop. My favorite among them is #2 from webmaster-source. Really cool.

• Patrickon July 20, 2008 11:22 am

  Thanks for telling me where #2 was. I love that desktop. It’s super clean and polished looking without looking like the cheesy wood backgrounds I have seen in the past. I feel like my computer is in a nice home library. I sometimes like scenic outdoor or space scenes but in reality something like the wood theme makes a lot more sense for a computer screen that is up close in your field of vision.

• Richard X. Thrippon July 19, 2008 10:06 pm

  Nice sampling of desktops. I like Dan Craciun’s background photo a lot. Look at that clutter on the one from http://www.se7enize.com though! I could never find anything with that. I try to keep icons off the desktop, because it’s easy to lose arrangement in Windows and it helps me to focus.

• Melvinon July 19, 2008 9:13 pm

  Hehe Man, thanks for the upload and exposure…

• ReddHon July 19, 2008 9:06 pm

  My desktop (#23) requires a little explanation:

  A good friend of mine tends to say the word “Mongoose” a lot to me, without provocation I might add. Eventually I found a picture online of a Dwarf Mongoose and sent it to him… it happens to me a red head just like me. Now we randomly send the picture around to lighten the mood of a conversation, so I made it my desktop to make me smile.

• SE7ENon July 19, 2008 8:13 pm

  mine is on “#7”? coincident or intended? lol 😛

  I’m really embarrased. mine is the most messy, but trust me, my everyday desktop don’t show any icon 😛 it looks like this imageox.com/image/295408-2.png

  I save many files on desktop(folder) because I’m too lazy. lol
  Desktop folder and My Documents folder shortcut appear in save file dialog, but My Docs is really really full, so I go to desktop. lol

  I am surprised with all the all the Vista Screen shots . I thought everyone hated Vista.

• SEO Geniuson July 19, 2008 7:42 pm

  haha some really good ones there 😀

• Gon July 19, 2008 7:20 pm

  Who doesn’t love #7?! Haha 😀

  Represent our desktops!

• Camillo Milleron July 19, 2008 6:53 pm

  Nice!

  But jeez… two hours?

  Not too be too fanboystic but:

  Bulk resize/rename the pics in automator: 5 minutes

  RapidoWrite to quickly align the post,

  And half an hour of wordpress charge and insert image 🙂

  😉

• roger  on July 19, 2008 6:34 pm

  @patrick some amazing apple wallpapers here including that one!

• David Hobsonon July 19, 2008 6:01 pm

  Some nice looking desktops but i like mine better.

• Patrickon July 19, 2008 5:17 pm

  I’d like to get #2 for my own desktop. How can I get it without the author’s dock, icons, etc?

• SATISHon July 19, 2008 5:08 pm

  Hi all….

  And thanks for Daniel for showing my Desktop of DBT ( #24. http://technotip.org — wallpaper with bridge, lamps and water). And I also liked 17th one, as the guy is having the applications on this desktop, which I also use frequently. And the wallpaper is excellent.

• LiviuXon July 19, 2008 4:36 pm

  1st one is perfect for mee too. Without the messenger.

• th13rteenon July 19, 2008 4:29 pm

  Hey Daniel thanks for adding my desktop in there. Its #25 guys.

  Disclosure: That’s not actually the way I keep my desktop. I just arranged the icons like that. I just did that to make some people laugh. lol

  Btw, did you guys get the joke in my icon arrangement? lol
