Desktop Icon Toy

Have Fun with your Desktop

Let's face it, compared to something like the iPhone, the Windows desktop looks pretty boring.

Desktop Icon Toy lets you jazz it up! Easily arrange your icons in shapes, animate them, even have them race around the desktop. But not only that, Desktop Icon Toy lets you save your icon layouts, so you won't need to reposition them after a Windows upgrade, or a change to your screen resolution.

Real Users Say

“Desktop Icon Toy has been a true 'life saver' to me. I am a power user who is frequently upgrading and replacing software on my computer. This frequent software changes often cause Windows Vista to crash for one reason or another, which often times resulted in losing the layout of my desktop icons. Since I manage many different projects at the same time, I have lots of icons spread over many different screens, and losing the layout of those icons was disastrous. Desktop Icon Toy came to rescue and solved my problem. Now if Vista crashes, Desktop Icon Toy will restore the layout of my multi-monitor desktop upon system reboot, saving me the hassle and time of having to re-arrange the icons. Two other features that I have found to be very useful are the ability to automatically hide desktop icons when I am working on an application window (useful in that it removes the distraction of all those icons in the background), and the ability to have icons 'dance' when the mouse hovers over them (useful in that you can immediately see where your mouse is located). Last, but definitely not least I have say that the support team behind Desktop Icon Toy is one of the best I have EVER seen in the industry. They reply very promptly to bug reports and suggestions, and are very friendly and interested to help. Some days ago I reported a bug on the software, and within hours they had already fixed it. That level of good service is sadly no longer present in the industry, except for in very few cases. Desktop Icon Toy is one of those. I strongly recommend buying Desktop Icon Toy in order to supports its further development."”- Paul Witschey
“Desktop Icon Toy is not a gimmick or just a party toy, but a well thought out missing desktop tool and inspired novelty that makes my desktop life more organized and enjoyable. I thought when I first saw it's description that it would be fun for about 5 minutes ... However, the ability to save and restore layouts peeked my interest. So, after installing Desktop Icon Toy v2.6 I was amazed at its functionality to lock down my unruly desktop jungle ... The various shapes and patterns are a hit at office parties and the clock reminds us of our deadlines.”- JW vanLohuizen, consultant
“This is the most awesome transparent Desktop icon software I have ever found that does it all. The most important thing to me is to have not only the text transparent but the background too. All the other great features Desktop Icon Toy has is just added candy for me, I have had some awesome compliments even from a computer tech.”- Chichigirl
