SasH :you said it`s an unbelievable blurry picture on my desktop,but why I look it clearly.
and could you give a link to download your picture on the desktop,and tech`s picture.
thanks a lot

Well, I'll try to explain... Look at the edges between contrasted colors... there is a lot of so called artifacts which suggests that we are talking about very low quality JPG file (read: high image compression) or you used some small image for example 300x240 pixels size picture and using stretch method, you placed it as a wallpaper on your desktop. Enlarging always makes any image blurry unless we are talking about vector images that can be enlarged/shrunk as much as you want without losing a bit of quality. That applies only when we are talking about bitmaps.

Anyway, here is the link for the wallpaper I am using. That's actually OSX Leopard wallpaper, at least the one that's presented at WWDC '07. I just slightly changed my version by adding that reflection at the bottom of the wallpaper

Also, you don't need all those icons on the desktop to access your applications. What will happen one day when you have 200 programs installed and you want to have access to all of them from your desktop ? Unbelievable busy desktop with even more difficult navigation... it would take you 10 minutes to find an icon that represents the application you want to start.

I use RocketDock for quick access to my most used software tools. Also, I like to use Quick Launch that's integrated into your task bar.

I like classic themes and i like too classics backgrounds, no turbocharged themes and wallpapers,hehe

I really like this, I just viewed it in its thumbnail style view then I expanded it (on dial-up I don't often expand the images). It is great the nice countryside with the country cottage and then you see the whopping great wind-farm spoiling the view, something that is becoming a blight on the landscape in many areas of the UK.

I have found some information through the internet and I heard that the Gigaget is just from Thunder(a download software in our country )and it`s Thunder`s international edition,I have download and try it
,I felt it is amazing ,very fast and green(no ad,)(because the chinese edition have a lot of ad,so I hate it )
I decide to uninstall the Chinese edition...

 I have add some software into the RocketDock,and it looks perfect on my computer(thank you for recommeding
But the problem is that I can`t add the Internet Explorer in it :'((actually ,I can add Opera browser in it )
