    <description><![CDATA[A lot of times, you browse a site and see a cool screenshot of someone's desktop.  If you want a desktop just like that you have to follow instructions to download the correct wallpapers, icons, themes, etc. and install it on your system.  A lot of manual effort is usually involved to set up each thing separately.<br /><br />This suggestion is for a single-click system to get a user's desktop to look exactly as they seen in a screenshot.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

<b>[181 votes] Solution #1: Single downloadable configuration file to set the theme, wallpaper, icons, etc.</b>

  <description><![CDATA[You know, until GNOME 2.20, it was actually possible to do this in a very similar fashion to what you describe.<br /><br />You could simply drag the "Download" link of any GTK+ theme, Metacity theme, icon theme (or bundle that contains all of them), straight into the Themes preferences dialog, and the theme would be downloaded and unpacked automatically.<br /><br />Of course, when they brought out the new Appearance control panel in GNOME 2.20, something had to be broken, and it turns out it was my favourite feature that was broken.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[On a related note, sometimes I see a screenshot and I am curious what programs all their little GNOME panel icons represent.  I think it would be nice to (optionally) also have that information shared as part of "all the settings in a single downloadable configuration file, that people can publish along with their screen shots".  Don't you?]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Vexorian, the suggestion is for a system which can make far more changes that simply setting a theme or a wallpaper manually.<br /><br />I have updated the solution description, which will clarify my point.]]></description>
