Well I am guessing you are using ubuntu... but the reason it's on an axis is because you only have 2 virtual desktops setup, you need 4 for it to be a cube.

super+e is the default key for the Expo plugin (if I remember correctly) which zooms you out and hows all four desktops lined up next to each other.

for zooming out the cube:
in the compiz settings manager click on "rotate cube"
increase the value under the "zoom" option in the general tab
