I made a hidden folder on my desktop by making the folder icon a
rectangle of the same color as the desktop. Only the name is seen unless
it is highlighted. Then I drag the icon down until the name is hidden
behind the taskbar. Really stealthy.

And from whom are you hiding this folder -- your wife or mother?

Actually, no one. Just playing around. There is nothing secret on my
computer.

that's pretty cool...

i once saw a picture where the wallpaper was a photo of the wall behind the
computer.
it blended perfectly to make the monitor appear to be made of clear glass

(although , who knows...it may just have been photoshopped...but it looked
neat)
