I am sick of the icons being there. Aside from throwing them onto my taskbar is there anyway I can condense them to one convenient launch area on my desktop?

I run YzDock, but ObjectDock is cool too. Just go to StarDock's website and download ObjectDock beta for free. Icons and such can be found at Wincustomize.com

Is YzDock any easier on system resources? I use ObjectDock, but I have to close it when I run BF1942...and every few days otherwise.

I've seen people use CSS to program links into their wallpaper instead of icons as another option.

I don't have any links, but it would basically just consist of writing a webpage with links to the appropriate files, then setting to "view desktop as wallpaper."
