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 smile.gif)

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.

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

All finished ... for those who want it, it's at the archive (link in first post, updated) smile.gif

Change where it says garbage to PSP.

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

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

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

Thanks a bunch for the idea for the E-reader icon ... it worked perfectly smile.gif

File's updated, link in first post. smile.gif

That's odd ... it looks ok for me (I just downloaded it to check). Which icons are missing for you?
pantera6
i hate to ask
but is it meant to be all buggy that icons appear and dissapear.*

Aninhumer
There is no internal clock on the GP2X

I think maybe the file got corrupt ... it just now updated to the correct .zip, and I had to re-upload the screenshot, so try to re-download it. Sorry for the trouble sad.gif
