Whoaa! I want that look! How you made it? Icons does't match the GUI style, but we can work on that :D

This is Linux Mint 17 MATE edition tweaked to look like my old GNOME 2 desktop. The wallpaper is from the Ubuntu 14.04 repo.

:D  :D  :D

kubuntu with the latest kde 4.13.2 :)

done myself a new wallpaper and modified the button for homerun kicker. also enjoying the possibility to use virtual desktops (i havent used them for years, dont know why, probably because i was so used to the uncomfortable way windows desktops behaved - shocking. kde offers so much more flexibility)

also i brought tux on my desktop for a little bit of fun :D

Just tossing this out there, Windows has had virtual desktops for many years from multiple sources, one even from Microsoft way back around the turn of the century.  Reasonably sure there was one back in the 95 days, never mind I know I had something like it for even DOS back in the 80's. Shocking. 

 

But I agree, out of all the *Nix desktops, definitely like KDE as it is the most flexible.
