I was just browsing the internet to find a fix to wrap long text strings under icons.
I completely agree with sambehera, the long strings under icons takes a lot of space on the desktop and it also looks very ugly,
how hard can it be to fix this, seriously. Things like this make people revert back to windows, if they've got even through the
installation process that is. Can you imagine ,, a total beginner spends al his time to make linux work on his system, starts up and
is confronted with the overlapping of icons and long texts.

Some people may not see this as a problem, but it looks totally ugly, and a desktop that looks like this is totally not ready to
compete with windows xp's desktop.

I think developers should consider fixing this.
