Ohhh it has been 2 years now so lets have some fun!

Here is how it works, take a screenshot of your current desktop and upload it, then post the link right here. Everyone on the dc will then be able to vote for the best desktop. The winner will receive a (undisclosed) amount of DC points. IF you think you are up for it and share your desktop with the world, then post it right here. Good Luck!

Before you judge it, my desktop has earlier been subject to hideous amounts of rice. (Rainmeter, windows skins, hidden taskbar, super minimalistic wallpapers, music player desktop apps etc.)
But I decided for something sleek and functional in the end. Also 1920x1080 isn't poor mans resolution!!
The gadgets aren't exactly pretty, but they're functional and informative.

the full trashbin gives some detail to the whole image. its much richer in impulses. the position the the trashbin gives a bit dramatic feeling to the overall picture, and highten the taskbar's loneliness. and the clock... oh the clock. see that flag next to it? with a red cross on it? that symbolize the terror. the terror what the political party gives to te people. it even shows the day! IT COUNTS THE DAYS WE HAVE LEFT!

i hope you understand now why'd i chose my own dekstop as the winner dekstop.
