Like I said, my Work machine, not a whole lot of time spent looking at my desktop
True that, but I still like a funky work desktop.

I don't want to be nasty, but I think a "show my desktop" thread would be much nicer than a "rate my desktop" thread.

I don't really customise my desktop.
I change the background to whichever standard one it ships with that I like the best and that is the extent of my customisation. I remember when I first started using Ubuntu I used to customise the stuffing out of it. My poor graphics card was rendering flame text in editors, using that goddamn cube etc.
Oh wait I also put a terminal icon on the upper panel and I customise the terminal window keyboard shortcuts so that I can move through the tabs faster using shift + left/right.

I still like a good wallpaper, but that is the amount of customization I do nowadays.
Just want to switch the pc on and start working, or playing, or surfing, or burning....you know, those sort of things.
That and a single panel in Gnome, I hate dual panels.

Hehe, before taking that screenshot I moved the 2 million icons & crap on my desktop into that tmp folder sitting on the desktop second from the top 
My desktop is usually a mess and every couple of months I just move all the crap into a folder. Can't let the MyBB peeps see my dirty desktop

Nowadays most desktops are just a different wallpaper with a menu bar.

Doesn't look too shabby!
*You can change settings for Photobucket, just fiddle round a bit.
Looks like you posted the thumbnail image. Change it in your settings to the full picture link.
