What better way to introduce myself than with a desktop screenshot... Here's an explanation of some of the things to see:
* Theme: UNO 1.3
* Wallpaper: Original is called 'April Showers' and was made by zilla774. Background has been edited by me with a different texture. I'm sure most of you like the original better but I found this version to be easier on the eyes during the night.
* Icons: Made by me. The words such as 'Applications' and 'Downloads' are the actual icons and therefore clickable. I didn't like the way my (old) icons looked on this wallpaper so I figured the orange flowers of the wallpaper would make for some excellent looking icons. At first I planned on using some transparent icons with a different (orange) font for their descriptions. The transparent icons could have then be put on top of the wallpaper's flowers. Instead, I ended up making some 128x128 PNG images with Photoshop myself, turned those into icons and put spaces in for their descriptions. My goal was for them to blend in with the wallpaper nicely, which in my opinion they do fairly well. You can see what I mean here or in the preview where I've highlighted one of the icons.
