Eh, since I had to go ahead and post it on another forum, figured we haven't had one here in a while so why not?
If you are somehow unfamiliar with how to post your desktop, you can simply hit "Print Screen" on your keyboard and open up MS Paint(or your favorite graphics program) and ctrl-v or paste a screenshot and save it as whatever graphics format works for you. If you need image hosting, try
www.imageshack.us or
www.uploadhouse.com for easy, free, image hosting.
To start it off...
Previously I had a very interactive, active desktop, heavy with all kinds of css and javascript. Nowadays I'm going for a very minimalist look with random art or National Geographic photos cycling in the background, so while I'm uploading or downloading something, atleast my computer looks nice sitting there mostly unused.
I'm running BBLean(a light-weight shell alternative), Yz Dock(it's cliche but still slick), and Wallpaper Cycler for the backgrounds.
Feel free to link to any source wallpaper, visual style, etc. that you are using, or request info on anothers.
