You have been subscribed to a public bug:
it is commonly known that if you have quite a lot of items on desktop
after some days/weeks, the arrangement (if you allow them to be "fixed")
of them looks quite strange or at least not unitary. it's the fault of
the much too fine invisible grid, which is ought to arrange the items to
positions. the minimal distance between 2 objects on desktop is MUCH to
low. take it twice, and it is much nicer...
e.g., you can try another point: you can arrange tons of items above
another?!! what?! kiddin me...
another point is the preview - function for jpg's (very nice indeed).
but it is the same... it looks not unitary after a while.
i give a comparison:
compare a full desktop of windows XP with a full desktop of gnome or ubuntu if
you want.
which looks more tidily? obviously the one from windows.
please don't get me wrong, i like the preview function a lot. but to
make it look better and unitary (to give the user a better impression),
somehow this grid has to be made with bigger distances.
p.s.: sorry for my bad english
