Geektool desktop for mac os#
GeekTool is a PrefPane (System Preferences module) for Mac OS 10.5.
It was not the greatest desktop screenshot, but what he put on his desktop that interest me the most.Įver heard GeekTool and CandyBar? GeekTool I just couldn’t figure out what I really want to be on my desktop that could also inspired me, until I saw one desktop screenshot from deviantArt. But recently I changed it once or twice in a week. For the past few years I changed my desktop wallpaper every once or twice in a month. Ever get bored with the ordinary look of your current desktop? Did you try using the most awesome wallpaper you could find to cheer up your desktop? Did it work? Well, for me it didn’t. Your desktop is the closest inspiration source for you. How is it not? Many designers spent their time working on a wallpaper design with hope it will give them inspiration when they need it. And if you notice, your desktop could also become one of the sources for it. From browsing for inspiration on Google to reading people’s tweet of new inspiration post online.
With the technology we have today, it is only a matter of quality to feed your brain with selective inspirations to keep you going with new ideas.
