anybody know how to move all my icons to the left of the screen??? it is kinda weird for my iconds to be in the middle of my two screens

-chris

just go to View>show view options in finder, or hit command+J, and uncheck things like snap to grid or keep arranged by, drag select all your icons, drag them to where you want, go back to view options and check what you want , like keep arranged by name. thats it.

hey one for troubleshooting, that sounds like a good idea - how does that work out??? i think i shall do the same.

nice wallpaper.
i have been looking for one like that.
where did u find that?
also, ur terminal is so matrix-like, how do u use it?

 

[Zach_C]

The desktop is a screenshot from the movie Lost in Translation. Go to Google images and type in the movie then select large pictures only. The matrix dialog comes from the Fink Project called cmatrix.
