[QUOTE=Prollgurke;48709336]For w7:
Open any high quality png with your browser (only tested with firefox), right click and choose "set as wallpaper". It won't be compressed and keep its quality.

Changing stuff in your appearance window (like window color and stuff) will compress it again. Seems like browsers somehow bypass the compression process.[/QUOTE]
I am aware of this. On Windows 10 though you can actually have it fade between them without raping them with artifacts.
I made this because I wanted a rotation without jpegs.

Basically everything except the Windows 7 wallpaper changing interface doesn't jpeg them.

It would've been cool if they included a 4K version of the new bliss background as an easter egg :v:

The button on the bottom opens a game drawer, the button on the side opens RAM & CPU usage, as well as volume and how much space is taken on your HDD, and ForceKiller is just a shortcut that ends every process that isnt responding.
Just got a moto g2 and love it. R8 my homescreen.

It's nostalgic.
[QUOTE=Acti;48723670]It's fucking ugly guys sorry. :disgust:[/QUOTE]
the only thing bad about it is a few icons are in a weird spot
the wallpaper is A+ and everything else is just "i didn't take the time to rice it" (not a bad thing)
I have finally decided to go insane.

Hope this isn't overdone, the things that stick out are the font rendering (:v:) and the notification area icons, because they aren't covered by Classic95 :( Battery power sucks, but then again my battery is dying and is usually plugged in so I don't mind, also it might help if I actually did optimization.
Now to completely emulate the geniune Windows 95 experience with paint!

This is the closest I could get to the win95 explorer:

Surprisingly thunar is very close to win95 file explorer.

at least you listen to the Giant Bombcast
Just wondering. Why would one go back to the windows 95 experience? Just for fun or do you actually find it supreme?
I can understand wanting the UI function, but I see a lot of people going straight for the UI style? That's what I don't get.
[QUOTE=xmariusx;48759790]Just wondering. Why would one go back to the windows 95 experience? Just for fun or do you actually find it supreme?[/QUOTE]
I mostly did it for fun :v:
Also I love the old legacy enterprise feel of 95 and that era of windows, it's the whole legacy system thing that gets to me and I got the same feeling using old versions of OSX. No idea why, I just find it awesome.
Sometimes, I like to think that I'm using Vista

Vista had a pretty decent aesthetic IMO

Agreed. If it wasn't for the performance issues then it probably would've been a pretty good OS.

i really try to keep my desktop clean, i swear
Guess I throw in a bonus because I found the contrast interesting.

whoa what
Okay, a semi-serious desktop this time.

And a version that is a little bit more cluttered:

Not the best build i've ever done, but it's better than generic numix/numix circle. For anyone who is wondering, the theme is [URL="https://github.com/horst3180/Arc-theme"]Arc[/URL] and the icons are [URL="http://www.ravefinity.com/p/vibrancy-colors-gtk-icon-theme.html"]Vibrancy[/URL]. [URL="https://i.imgur.com/ZC7zVBm.jpg"]Cinnamon on Arch[/URL], of course. Here is my firefox setup who anyone who doesn't care:

Also does anyone know what font facepunch uses? I know it uses Tahoma however it doesn't use the same font everywhere.
That firefox's aesthetic is pleasing me wish we chrome peasants could get that
[QUOTE=cr4sh!;48774856]That firefox's aesthetic is pleasing me wish we chrome peasants could get that[/QUOTE]
Yeah, Google seems really keen on stripping out all themeability in chrome for some reason, dunno why. I have to use chrome and firefox interchangeably because firefox video playback support is still complete shit (plex is a good example) but it seems firefox is going the chrome direction (that can be interpreted as a good or bad thing). Both browsers are great, it just seems one excels in one area, the other tries to follow and completely bulldozes a skyscraper in the proccess.
