I don't know how many icons you need to place, but rather than the desktop, you can enlarge the panel and add icons for applications to it easily, and select always visible, and the icons will never be hidden by opened windows. The panel can be at the top, bottom, or either side of the desktop. When I set up for public users I generally turn off desktop icons to avoid inadvertent desktop clutter and added unnecessary apps caused by inexperienced users. (add trash, web browser, and LOwriter to favorites in the start menu.) To make applications other than default LL applications available you first have to add them to the start menu >Menu>Settings>Main Menu then right click the item from the menu and add to panel.
