Desktop files Not showing

My screen shots for example show in desktop file but not on actual desktop. Is a matter of fact I can't drag anything to the desktop and have it show. Help

Relaunch Finder by Alt-clicking it in the Dock and choosing "Relaunch".

Thank you. I moved a doc to the desktop from Finder site.
