[member=7651]TimeTravel[/member] , [member=5059]whateverthing[/member]

    To enable the drag 'n' drop feature :
        1) Right-click on any space on the desktop and choose Desktop Settings
        2) There are 3 tab headings, Background, Menus and Icons, click on the Icons Tab
        3) At the bottom of the Icons Tab is a heading Default Icons and below that is a scroll box with items and tick boxes.
        4) Ticking/Unticking the boxes will enable/disable default xfce desktop icons.
        5) Enabling the Home and Wastebasket items will produce 2 new icons on the Desktop. The Home icon can replace the default LL User Files shortcut while the Wastebasket appears as Rubbish Bin .

        This Rubbish Bin acts as you would expect, files/folders can be dragged 'n' dropped to this icon.
        Opening the Rubbish Bin folder and right-clicking on any of it's contents brings up a menu from which the items can be deleted or restored.
        Try it out, when satisfied just delete the default LL icons or untick the ones you don't want :)

        Hope this helps.

Sweet!  You instructions worked like a charm.  Thanks  :D.
How do I mark this as solved?  I try to modify, but the only prefix selections I can choose from are either Helpful Tip or No Prefix.
