>>. Get rid of the text area, leaving only the icon picture
portion being displayed.
Yes. You can change the names of the icons to a character that is only a
space actually.
You can find this character with the CHARACTER MAP and its combination is
ALT+0160.
For each icon you must have more of these characters in order to not have 2
icons with the same file name.
You can also turn files extensions off from the folder properties for those
icons that have file extensions.
Also from DISPLAY> APPEARENCE> ADVACNED you can then make the icons spacing
smaller.

YES! You can make a totally transparent icon and use that for every icon on
your desktop, then you can go to
DISPLAY> APPEARENCE> ADVACNED you can then make the icons spacing smaller.
In otherwords it is possible but are you willing to do all this work to make
it so?
