Is there a way of modifying the desktop grid in panther? In jaguar the grid was tighter together, while the grid on panther is all spread out, regardless of what size you make the icons. Their is just way too much space horizontally and vertically between my icons..

Thanks!

Ya I'd want to know the answer to this too, if someone found out. It feels like they are a mile apart. hehe

From your desktop (Finder), click "View" from the top menu and select "Show View Options". From there you can set the icon size with a simple slider.
If this is waay too much clicking for you, just hit apple+j in finder to jump directly

oh, and I´d love to know about the grid stuff as well
