OSX version 10.4.6 desktop question

[HUNT]

How does one get the icons to free up so I can move them anywhere I will.

Right now they are automatically going to the right in alphabetical order.

Thanks!! This is driving me nuts, I need to be able to arrange m desktop how I wish.

Alt click (or right click on PC I guess) on the desktop and go to view options, change it in there

Ok, I finally found it under the view button. I just kept looking through system preferences.

Thanks!
