Post Cluttered Desktop?
http://www.stardock.com/products/fences/index.asp

Awesome freeware I found the other day. I sort my documents on my desktop, but Windows is pretty behind with this concept in terms of usability. Especially since it resets the fucking order and positioning every so often. Not anymore.

I wanted to drop my folders into a groups, and that EXACTLY what this app does.

Probably one of the best utility apps i've ever found.

Not alot. About 25% of my screen is filled with icons, but I hate how I can't play around with grouping them.

Heh, Stardock (the website you got it from) is also the home of Stardock games and by extension the Impulse digital distribution service. I once heard they basically keep their gaming branch and Impulse afloat partially by grace of all these little tweaking tools, ie that there's a lot of money in them.

Hey their Thanksgiving sales already started. I guess I should check out Steam too! I thought Thanksgiving was weeks ago, but I guess that was Halloween. :roll: Derf, not that you'd go that far probably but they got the PRO version of that freeware up on a sale - 7 instead of 14 €.

They've also got other tools up for sale

Haha, all your yank holidays kind of blend into one shapeless mass for me. :P The fact that you probably don't get a day off for 90% of them isn't really helping to make me think of them as actual holidays. ;)

heh... yea.. we get screwed by our government on a regular basis. However, thanksgiving is a REAL, get-out-of-work-free type of holiday. :roll:

BTW, the Canadian Thanksgiving was on October 11th, so maybe that's what you got confused by. Though why anyone would know anything about Canada is beyond me.
