»Artist's Comments: (Ray)

Version 1.2 of my desktop setup on the iMac. Partial inspired by the Shelves theme for the iPhone and the desire to get away from using an 'ordinary' desktop. Added a few personal touches such as the personal photos and the notes on the pinboard, as well as my own logo on the wallpaper.

For this version, I installed GeekTool to create a more dynamic What's On! notice, as well as for the calendar showing today's date. You will also notice the lack of the dock as I hardly use it anymore since I launch everything via QuickSilver or Spotlight.

Version 1.1 can be seen here.
Version 1.0 can be seen here.

Credits:
Wallpaper based on the Dramatic Room background with my own modifications.

The Art Toys and The Vinyl Collection icons can be downloaded from Pixelgirl Presents.

The stereo displaying what song is currently playing in iTunes was achieved using the Bowtie desktop application. Be sure to download the Theme Starter Pack as well as this includes the Geeky theme that was used.

The What's On! notice and the calendar showing today's date were achieved using the GeekTool app.

This is so cute!

But these "Daily Desktops" aren't really "Daily"...
