I've decided to re-write this little tutorial for those who are interested in a more "Mac Feel" on the gnome Desktop.
First, open terminal and write:
apt-get source nautilus
sudo apt-get build-dep nautilus
The build-dep command will install all the build dependencies for nautilus.
In nautilus sorce folder you just downloaded, navigate to: src\file-manager.
Find the file named: fm-desktop-icon-view.c
Open with your favorite Text Editor and find the line:
real_supports_labels_beside_icons (FMIconView *view)
Below it you'd see this line: return FALSE;
Change it to:
return TRUE;
On GNOME3 and Nautilus 3.x+ search for the file: /src/nautilus-desktop-icon-view.c in the directory you just downloaded.
And look for this line: "supports-labels-beside-icons", FALSE,
Change FALSE to TRUE
Save the file.
Now start to compile Nautilus.
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
killall nautilus
Alt+F2
nautilus
Choose Text Beside Icons in the Preferences.
Nautilus now should draw Text beside icons on the desktop.
You can also tell Nautilus to count the items in each folder, to do this go to: Edit>Preferences>Display Tab > Under It choose 'size' in the first box. Or whatever option you'd like.
If you'd like to change the color of the 'Items count' or whatever, It's part of the gtkrc in the theme itself. Every theme differs, so you have to look for the color settings yourself, in mine It was:
NautilusIconContainer::highlight_alpha=160
NautilusIconContainer::dark_info_color="#"
NautilusIconContainer::light_info_color="#"
The second line is responsible for the color on the desktop and the first one on color in the file-manager.
But in most themes It should be under: style "desktop-icon"
And look like this:
NautilusIconContainer::normal_alpha = 0
text[NORMAL] = "#000000"
NautilusIconContainer::frame_text = 1
class "GtkWidget" style "desktop-icon"
Should work on both GNOME2 and GNOME3.

So... some bad news, I'm not sure If it's final yet but in Nautilus 3.5.4 the option "Text beside icons" is going to be removed along with many other options. Hopefully most distros would be smart enough not to upgrade to this version until the GNOME team gets sober from all the booze they drank.
if I go back to nautilus-standard how should I do?
In nautilus-elementary it actually a built-in option, you could enable it through gconf-editor:
gconftool-2 --set /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_labels_beside_icons --type boolean "false"
I'm not sure if It's there yet, didn't use Linux in a while but planning to install again soon.
sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus
Or something like that.
Try opening Synaptic and uninstall any version of Nautilus you've got, then install Nautilus again. Very strange, reinstalling should just run over the install you've made.
If that didn't solve the problem then uninstall Nautilus from source, go into the src folder you downloaded with the Nautilus source and type in terminal: make uninstall
