God damn XP was even more rancid than I remember.

XP was the last windows that had soul. after that

windows 98 GUI was peak, XP offered god-tier stability but the GUI was shit by comparison and it only went downhill from there

sometimes i have to remind myself that everyone on this fucking site is under 30 years old

It was cute, designed for smol screens.
You have no taste, so should have no say in these matters.
>>108876429
Older windows were too much of 2000's shitty palette. Fucking gray, blue, brown, other gray, other blue. It was extremely boring and unpleasant to see it. WinXP literally fixed most of that.

you baby ducky luddite! windows 7 is secure and I am scared of 1s and 0s

I've grown to like minimal designs.

I haven't. This looks like it belongs in a souless beige office building

Windows 7 > 10 > 2000 that's my list.

Its garbage. Windows classic is perfection.

It looks like it belongs on board a PLC in a comfy manufacturing facility.

Thank God Xfce & Mate have themes like that
>>
>>108876665
none of those were even good though
I use GNOME btw
>>
>>108876640
I also made an olive green colored classic windows theme back in the day and sometimes used that, too.
>>
>>108878167
I only found the default blue (not royale) XP theme so far
>>
>>108875780 (OP)
Notice how the close button is bigger than the others, it is implied that the most useful action you can do on a window is close it
>>
>>108875780 (OP)
Truth. Before that they are ugly. After that they are too corporate. Windows 11 ones is a skinwalker
>>
>>108875790
10 & 11 are a fucking disgrace. The buttons look worse than Windows 95.

The Fischer-Price critics were right, XP was ugly and 7 wasn't much better. Microsoft nailed it 30 years ago by copying others and everything since has been a disaster.

This.
Vista (Aero) and Win9x design were absolute peak.
