AFAIK, you can't place icons on the desktop, only in the control panel bar thingy. You can customize the mouse generated menu (left mouse button click) to include whatever you want in it. = Lonni J.

You can iconify apps, which places them on the desktop as an icon, but there still open and running, I think. Probly not what he wants...

That put the icons that are in ~/Desktop on my desktop. I no longer use xfce and don't have kde installed either, but I'm pretty sure that is what I did.

I have Gnome installed and am using icewm-gnome. So I tried putting gmc in .Xclients. Then I remembered that I'm now using .xsession for that kind of thing; so I put it in .xsession. Then I just had to drag and drop to place some icons. After that I had to find out where they are stored, because ~/Desktop seems to be just for KDE. I found them in ~/.gnome-desktop/ So now I have icons again - well at least folder icons at this point.
