In round 1 several people took the time to splice together multiple 
desktops into one screen shot.

There is nothing stopping anyone from doing that in round 2 with 1, 2, 
4, 6, 8. 10,12, 14, 16 or even 32 desktops if they have the motivation. 
I think the screenshot with the most desktops will probably win. Also it 
makes things easier for people to see if the apps are presented on 
multiple desktops.
