I have an inverted Jenny using a simple black background.

This is Windows 7 and I keep my task bar at top with minimal stuff on desktop.

I do as most of you -- I have dual monitors on my Windows 10 (Office) Machine and I have a library of scans that randomly shift as wallpaper. My left monitor is cluttered with icons. This morning, the right monitor looks like this:



By the way, I freely confess to "stealing" images from this forum for my library. Most of them come from the "Collecting by Engraver" thread.

Stallzer & Lithograving are my heroes

My desktop features an image of one of my computer generated collages...(no stamps were damaged in the process!)
I have made a number of collages featuring stamps...this is my homage to Decaris collage...can you figure out the stamp sources?

I'm a bit OCD about keeping my desktop clear of clutter.



I keep all my shortcuts either in the dock at bottom, the taskbar at top, or in my iMac's launchpad. Across the bottom I keep shortcuts to the apps I use most often in my stamp work -- Photoshop, InDesign, PMGS StampFix, Fetch (FTP app), NameChanger (bulk file renamer), and my Epson scanner. I also have a shortcut (the gold-colored one near the right of the dock) that fans out to show PDF copies of the Michel catalogs I use on a daily basis. It's really handy for quick access to my catalogs.

I believe in a clean desktop. If I could delete the recycle bin, I would. The picture is one I took while hiking in Alaska.

rlsny,
Looks like you are using Windows 10, to remove Recycle Bin from desktop...
1. Select the Start button, then select Settings
2. Select Personalization > Themes > Desktop icon settings
3. Select the Recycle Bin check box > Apply

Is it safe to broadcast all the programs one uses?

I must be Dorothy the Dinosaur, my Desktop is cluttered with 60 or so programs,
However I never work from there, I work from a File / Folder every day, with all my special programs located in the "Quick launch bar"
Every download / scan I make, drops into that special File / Folder.
