Default positions of desktop icons

Is there any way to change the default positions of desktop icons from being the top left square to the right side of the screen and about a row down? I've got my taskbar at the top of the screen right now, and as it stands, when a new desktop icon is created, it's butted up against the taskbar and looks terrible. Obviously, I know it can be moved, but it'd be nice if I could find some script or registry tweak that'll start icons on the right and lower so they work their way down that side of the screen without doing it myself.

 

Don't know of any software that can do that, google it to see if you find anything. Just do it manually and use IconRestore to make sure you can save your icons position.
