I'm not sure what you mean. The icons are drawn by Nautilus, so if you
don't have Nautilus running, you don't get icons.

If you just want to change your desktop background you can use
Applications->Desktop Preferences->Background, which I would consider to
be "outside nautilus". Also you can use gconf to set the background.
