Sh'elf is an on-demand window that functions just like your regular desktop, complete with drag-and-drop capability. Program supports relative (portable) paths for customizable image viewing, text editor, command shell, etc., as well as interface options such as stay-on-top and tray icon.
Good for alternate shells or quick access to another directory as an alternate desktop.
NOTE: Both 32 and 64-bit versions are contained in the download. Site offline, linking to softpedia and archive.org.

This looked cool, but its not what I thought it was. the description is (partially) accurate, you can't move icons around via drag and drop, doesn't support custom background images, and only one window.

The one thing I really like about Sh'elf is being able to browse to any folder and hit the F10 key to open a command prompt at that folder. Sweet!
