2012-12-27 11:06:00 Sergey "Shnatsel" Davidoff description No way to display icons on desktop is stupid. I've got a big screen in fullHD and i can't display anything on a HUGE part of the screen. A panel on top, a dock at bottom, hot corners, NOTHING ELSE than a picture in the middle (a really BIG middle). I can't understand!!!! I know that some people said that's to not be distract from applications, so why can i display a picture??? I use (and I'm not the only one) the desktop to display WIP and that's the only way i found to remind easily what i've got to do now. I love elementaryOS, really, i love it, but that's a really bad idea! I can't understand. An answer with this comment is here : http://elementaryos.org/support/answers/554#comments and because there is no solution: that's a bug. You cannot put random stuff on the backdrop out of the box, *by design*. You can still put random stuff, including folders, on the dock. The dock is easier to access and this way does not create additional distractions in the backdrop. We are aware that there are use cases in which putting random stuff in the backdrop is actually needed. Thus we will document a way to enable putting random stuff in the backdrop by the time of final release.
