Hi :) It should be possible to view the desktop as 'just another folder'. In Ubuntu just the "Places" menu. In Windows open your "My Docs" or "My Documents" folder and then in the icons at the top of that file-browser go up 1 level. The "Desktop" folder often has a different icon from the other folders but works the same way. Good luck and regards from Tom :)
