My July desktop:

My desktop.. I like the way the black and white contrasts with the dock colours!

Hmm I guess you can't see my dock.. Oh well, you can just imagine the dock!

Here's mine, along with the original, which is just a modification of the picture on the left over a white background that I did.

Plain and simple. Unfortunately Paragon NTFS doesn't work in Snow Leopard so my Windows partition lost its icon.

EDIT: Wallpaper available here.

I always found it annoying that Macs can't write to NTFS, particularly because FAT32 doesn't support files above the size of 4GB or something like that. I mean, if Macs can run Windows, then embrace the other side and get Mac OS X to write to NTFS!

Or is it not that simple? :mad:

I think it's more a case of lack of caring :p I mean windows doesn't natively support HFS+ and I doubt they ever will, so why should Apple go out of it's way to support Windows.

Why? Because Apple is a hardware company and Windows/OS X is an operating system. If Apple wants to boost their sales on hardware(although the OS is included), and make the transition more painless to new users, they need to cater to what the users need/want, NTFS would do nothing but make things a little easier.

Hmm, maybe they don't want to support NTFS so they can have more situations like this:

"Hey, congrats on switching over to me, your new Mac! Well, now I'm going to make it harder to switch back! :) Enjoy!"

My Mac is a jerk, apparently.
