@SuricrasiaOnline How do you do this?
@operand nova launcher (the launcher I use) lets you set the icons for apps on the homescreen to any image file. I spent the whole day hunting for icons lol
@operand I made a few of them too by modifying those I found (like the tinycards one and the termux one)
@SuricrasiaOnline This is breathtaking. OMG! Best home screen ever!
@SuricrasiaOnline I absolutely adore this icon art. I can recognize some of them as official ones from the DLL - do you have any suggestions for where I could find the rest?
@polychrome yes a lot of it is from a windows 98 icon dump I found
also quite a few are from this site: http://cs.gettysburg.edu/~duncjo01/archive/icons/iconolog/
I also took to editing/making my own (the tinycards one is my own)
@SuricrasiaOnline may I please share on Twitter
How do you do this?
@SuricrasiaOnline also how do i get a theme like this for my phone too because i am a colossal dorkus :D
@SuricrasiaOnline
hey I see you play sudoku. May I recommend Enjoy Sudoku? It has lots of levels, like mild, moderate, intricate, difficult, annoying, devious, fiendish, diabolical, nightmare and maelstrom.
I'm stuck on devious and can barely handle the puzzles in 12 minutes each... WITH hints.
The best part is that it comes with a technique tutorial, like XYZWing, XY chain, hidden pairs, medusa coloring, etc.
@SuricrasiaOnline Quite nice, but using a custom font would add to the experience. Consider copying some TTFs from win98 or 2000 :P
@redsPL @SuricrasiaOnline
I ldeally a font that simulate a low res, non antialiased display.
Something that shows some pixels.
It's awesome otherwise, the round letters are the only thing that break the illusion a bit.
...but apparently there's a TrueType clone shipped in Windows 2000 and newer and Mac OS X 10.5 and newer, with updates through Vista
@bhtooefr @SuricrasiaOnline 2000 just used Tahoma as a standard UI font without any anti-aliasing, Millenium and earlier non-NT versions used some other font, but I can't be bothered to check which one was that.
So, just using Tahoma would be probably the easiest.
@SuricrasiaOnline
Absolutely beautiful!
@SuricrasiaOnline Looks Good. 👍
@SuricrasiaOnline You need a seasonally appropriate tiled background.
@SuricrasiaOnline Nice trip down memory lane. :)
@SuricrasiaOnline oh heck, i need to do this

@SuricrasiaOnline Hey, this is amazing. Mind if I set up a github repo with all these? Maybe we can start adding more and build a _proper_ icon set for phones
@SuricrasiaOnline
Ok, here we go, Github repo for collaborating on this awesome 90's-era phone theme:
