Window decoration button design peaked here
>>108875780Nah prefer Windows 10's buttons.
>>108875780>>108875790Both are shit. Windows is shit.
>>108875780*ahem*
>>108875780unironically
>>108876179God damn XP was even more rancid than I remember.
>>108876190XP was the last windows that had soul. after that>glass shit>ribbon interface>forced updates
>>108875780imagine giving a fuck about this dumb shit
>>108875780soul
>>108875780windows 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
>>108876206>>glass shit>>ribbon interfaceSOVL
>>108876190It was cute, designed for smol screens.You have no taste, so should have no say in these matters.>>108876429Older 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.
>>108876206you baby ducky luddite! windows 7 is secure and I am scared of 1s and 0s
>aeroshitdisgusting
>>108876179I've grown to like minimal designs.
>>108876640I haven't. This looks like it belongs in a souless beige office building
>>108876646Windows 7 > 10 > 2000 that's my list.
>>108875780Its garbage. Windows classic is perfection.
>>108876640>quick launchI miss this little nigga like you wouldn't believe
>>108876179It's Royale for me
>>108876646It looks like it belongs on board a PLC in a comfy manufacturing facility.
>>108878120>manufacturing facility>comfy
>>108876179Thank God Xfce & Mate have themes like that
>>108876665none of those were even good thoughI use GNOME btw
>>108876640I also made an olive green colored classic windows theme back in the day and sometimes used that, too.
>>108878167I only found the default blue (not royale) XP theme so far
>>108875780Notice 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
>>108875780Truth. Before that they are ugly. After that they are too corporate. Windows 11 ones is a skinwalker
>>10887579010 & 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.
>>108879330that gap annoys me
>>108875780>>108876640This.Vista (Aero) and Win9x design were absolute peak.
>>108875780mogged
>>108875780miss these niggas
>>108879376Here i fixed it :)
>>108876179I'm heavily nostalgic for XP but in a vacuum it looks really fucking bad lol
>>108878105Coworker Windows
>>108878796https://github.com/rozniak/xfce-winxp-tc/don't even need to do the whole total conversion if you only want the window decorations
holy shit lmaogrow up
>>108880924soulless UI
>>108878105Royale was good, but Zune was peak.
>>108875780police car lights they changed it to not give pocs ptsd
I really like this window decoration whatever it is. Is it stolen from some other os like qnx or amiga? What is it? What's the story behind it?
>>108879521>not using the red X button and titlebar gradient options
>>108876179>vomit themeZune won
>>108881548I still use this one from time to time on IceWM, it's called microGUI there, no idea about the original name
>>108881623thanks, anon. the icewm doesn't look quite right to me, but it's something I guess. I found some info on sawfish wm fandom wiki. I wonder how good is this sawfish wm
>>108881673>doesn't look quite right to meNothing looks perfect there, you get used to itThanks for sharing the link, now I'm curious about it too, might try it later
>>108881548Looks like Common Desktop Environment (CDE)
>>108881717Link? Wtf, I meant, the wiki thing infoToo drunk for dis shiet
>>108881722Nah, that's gnome 1.2
>>108881727https://sawfish.fandom.com/wiki/MicroGUIx2
blocks yer path
>>108881745Why is it a stoplight? Does green mean run this application? Yellow means slow down? The fuck were they thinking.
>>108876640Windows peaked here
>>108879376>>108879541The gap is called honesty in UI.

>>108879942>window decorationsthat won't help me, I use kwin_x11 with lxqtI guess making a Kvantum theme for qt apps wouldn't be hard, but window decorations are another matterp.s. aurorae is garbage of the highest order
>>108881804you joke but that's pretty much what Steve Jobs said when he was presenting it
>>108881548A few year ago, I used a theme like this in XFCE.
>>108876640win2000 really was the best. last good windows.
>>108881548Kinda, it's based on this concept art. QNX was developing a system for Amiga but they ditched it for Linux

windows 11 dark theme unironically mogs everything posted hereyes windows is jeet garbage but still
>>108885375>>108885422thanks, anon. this is so cool. that era(late 90s/early 00s) of ui design had something art deco about it
>>108876179its worse because you need to prevent mouse from going to the edge (when maximized) to close as opposed to 7 aero which is less tedious
>>108876557go back to china, bitch
>>108879521vomitous
>>108875780Less flashy, better usability.
Yeah, those on linux (the stuff that wants to copy macintosh stuff) are icky.
Use case for minimizing a window?
>>108886502To not see your posts
>>108885479This looks almost exactly like GNOME (Adwaita-dark), what the fuck?
>>108876646do retards like this not realize that was completely customizable?
