Many folks hate Windows. I for one liked the clean look and interface of Windows 95 when it came out (though I'll admit I was a bit reluctant to switch from 3.11)

I've created a new skin paying homage to Windows 95. Here's a screenshot:

New icons for the battery levels and E-reader (thanks to nickspoon for the idea :))

Grab it here: Windows 95 Skin

Couldnt you change the skull to the orange gp2"X"?
​

I could ... but that would decrease its evilness.

I'll be tempted to drop down to 1.4 from cramfs to give that skin an outing.

Nice work Lou.

:D

Thanks ... it matches your icons pretty well too:

You can change the cramfs skin by using the cramfs skin changer in the Archive.
I've done it for aerospace V2.

Garbage should be Recycle Bin unless it's different in 3.1 or US.

And you could try the ol' Notepad icon for Ebook.
​

You can do that yourself with paint...

I changed it to 'Garbage', as it's not a 100% accurate representation of Win 95, I took some artistic license ;)

Thanks a bunch for the idea for the E-reader icon ... it worked perfectly :)

File's updated, link in first post. :)

When i downloaded the skin it did not work propaly. You could not see all the icons for some reason....
​


That's odd ... it looks ok for me (I just downloaded it to check). Which icons are missing for you?

i hate to ask
but is it meant to be all buggy that icons appear and dissapear.*
btw itll be cool if we could get a real clock running on the gp2x, having to look on my phone all the time is to much hastle
