New Mine are strictly utilitarian . .
. . but I'll tell you what I did to one of my employees once. I took a snapshot of her normal working desktop with PMView and set it as her wallpaper. Then I fixed OS/2 to come up with a mostly empty desktop and load the wallpaper. The few real things that did appeared were precisely fitted over their images on the wallpaper.

The only problem with this trick is not getting yourself hoplessly confused while testing it.

New Mine are probably more utilitarian still
Generally I use fvwm2, with most panels filled by 2 maximized xterms. (Maximized up and down for maximum scroll space.)

Cheers,
Ben
