I posted about the experimental icon-free desktop:

Lots of fun. Here it is with peach theme, an old theme as described here:

Here is the icon-free desktop, on a 1920x1080 screen:

By using the 'xdotool' utility, the "Drives" menu will now automatically popup whenever a drive is plugged in.

On a screen that is smaller than 1920 pixels wide, the app labels automatically do not display. Here is a snapshot on a 1024x768 screen:

There are still a few buglets to fix.

Note that the original "trash" and "zip" icons at top-right of screen have been removed, as I never use them. I do sometimes use "lock" so that has been kept -- now in the systray, extreme right end.
