Make icons flow around custom desktop photo?
My desktop icons cover my custom desktop picture. Is there a way to tell OS X 10.6.8 to arrange themselves around the edges of the photo?

Nope, you'll have to move them manually.
However I do have a neat AppleScript that will place the currently selected screen saver as the desktop background. (10.6. only)
Copy and paste this into AppleScript Editor and save as a application to Utilities folder, drag it's icon to the Dock, it's your click on/off switch.
tell application "System Events"
if process "ScreenSaverEngine" exists then
tell application "ScreenSaverEngine" to quit
else
do shell script "System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Versions/A/Resources/ScreenSav erEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
end if
end tell
