Here in the United States it's the middle of winter, and while I haven't seen the snow I'd like to see, Flickr user yeesh23 hails from London and decided to bring the snow to her desktop if it wouldn't come to her window. A beautiful snow-covered wallpaper, a little GeekTool awction, and some dock tweaks were all she needed to customize her desktop into a ski-lover's paradise.
If you'd like the same look on your Mac's desktop, here's what you'll need.
If you're unfamiliar with GeekTool and want to get started with the kind of scripts you'll need to make your desktop look like this one, check out our guide to getting started with GeekTool.
If you're a Windows or Linux user, you should be able to get the same effect with Rainmeter or Conky (respectively) to some degree and recreate the scene in your OS of choice.
Do you have a great, beautifully productive desktop of your own that you'd like to share? Go ahead and post it to the Lifehacker Desktop Show and Tell Flickr Group with a description of how you made it and it may be the next featured desktop.
