My Cool Desktop - little app to arrange desktop icons into shapes

I made a free tool(for those who have more than 15 icons on desktop) to arrange your desktop icons into shapes like hearts, circles, stars and so on. It gives a bit of freshness to your desktop, icons arranged into a cute heart on a good wallpaper looks really nice.

You can set the height, width and position of the shape on the screen. It also have a function that saves and restores icons position, useful for those who change resolution a lot.

I attached some screenshots to see what I'm talking about.

Thanks burtie :)

I forgot to tell, to make it work you need to disable Align to Grid and Auto-arrange manually. I haven't found yet a way to deactivate those options automatically(talking about registry), maybe someone from this forum can help me, i'll appreciate :)

Thanks boohbah, i put some time on the positioning engine :)

I'm thinking of making a plug-in or something to let user do his own shapes, if I have enough time.
