Feels like its been awhile since the least time we saw each others desktops. Share away!

I only snapped the left monitor on my setup (dual 22" Dell IPS) as the other monitor is just the wallpaper.

its the full 1680x1050, so i had to link it instead. :D got the background from interfacelift.com. menubar has tweetie, adium (mushroom icon), gfxcardstatus, smartreporter, menumeters (i purposely set the cpu meter to monitor all 4 cores), and the usual built in osx ones.

the unusual dock icons are adium (link icon), tweetie, cyberduck, transmission, toast 11, itunes 10 (i used the itunes 10 "ui fix" and it brought back the old icons and stuff), and CoRD. also, i have modified my dock so the background is translucent black with blue led circles. :)

you guys like having the dock at the bottom? I prefer to have it on the left side to take advantage of a larger widescreen monitor.

Plain blue background, dock hidden on the right side (quicker for me to mouse over to the right than the left). That's it...lol. I love backgrounds, but I find them too distracting when I'm working.

I had mine that way for awhile, but recently switched back. With 3840 x 1080 of desktop space, it puts it a bit too far to the left for me and i got annoyed having to turn to look over all the time.

I keep the dock hidden, just showed it for the screenshot, no need for the dock really, spotlight does it all and a mouse button on the revolution mx assigned to bring up running app windows in espose.

I like the wallpaper. Mind sharing a link?
