Share your desktop/home screen

Post by Juneberry »

Whether it's your computer or phone, you must have a 'home screen' of some sort, right? So c'mon, let's share them! We might learn new things about each other and/or get some inspiration! I guess I'll start. This here is my laptop's desktop:

My organization is all thanks to the program Fences. You can't tell with them that I have a toooon of programs on my screen~ It makes me feel mysterious because you can't count how many writing programs I have.

I just don't have the heart to change it, I was inspired by cyberpunk, and specifically tron legacy and hacknet and I kinda ran with it.
this is the most retro futuristic interface I've come up with to date.

I don't see a reason you should have to change it anyway. I think it's quite charming! Top-left is my favorite image, but that Linux color scheme in general is so pretty and easy on the eyes!

hehe, yeah, I just felt it kinda fitting for windows to have a Borg inspired theme lol.

and thanks for the feedback, I actually got a ton of positive feedback when I posted my linux interface over on the GUI redit.
I'm no painter but I love designing interfaces :P

Is it difficult to design an interface? It certainly seems like it would be.
