This site made me realize the windows 1.x and windows 2.x (the ones from the early 80s!) logos look surprisingly modern!<p>Flat single-colored simple shape as is the trend today, with a light blue color that doesn&#x27;t even exist in the standard EGA color palette.<p>As opposed to the much more colorful and busy icons that came after.<p>But then of course Windows 10 and Windows 11 are flat-single-colored simple shapes again since they are _actually_ released during today&#x27;s logo design trends.

The Windows modding scene was probably most active in the mid 2000s when XP&#x27;s theming feature made it easy to create custom &quot;skins&quot; for all the UI elements. It&#x27;s worth noting that most if not all of these custom &quot;distros&quot; were likely made by people who had no formal education in CS, and did it mainly as a way to play around and explore and&#x2F;or impress their friends; I remember visiting the forums where this stuff happened back then, and some of the creators (self-reportedly) were very young --- early teens. The majority were likely male, but there was definitely some female presence too. I suspect a lot of them also didn&#x27;t go into CS or other computer-related fields when they grew older, but they definitely embodied the classic &quot;hacker spirit&quot;.

Are any of these releases based on leaked source code? Or have they simple repackaged existing builds?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;linuxreviews.org&#x2F;42.9_GB_Of_Microsoft_Source_Code_Leaked:_Historicans_Can_Now_Study_The_Source_Code_For_MS-Dos_3.3_To_Windows_XP" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;linuxreviews.org&#x2F;42.9_GB_Of_Microsoft_Source_Code_Le...</a>

Site&#x2F;project creator here. It&#x27;s nice to see my creation garner interest.<p>In all honesty, the project mostly serves as documentation and archival of Windows&#x2F;Linux bootlegs (that is to say, relative popularity is kind of a side thing for me, though it&#x27;s still nice. Having a reverse ego and limiting the project seems like a very bad move to make for an archival project IMO), as feeble file sharing websites have taken many links to them completely down.<p>As of the 2 years the project&#x27;s been around, there&#x27;s already at least a dozen bootlegs inside of the archive which, if we didn&#x27;t have them, would not be on the clearnet (I&#x27;m sure there&#x27;s probably at least one person hoarding at least a few which aren&#x27;t public anymore, but I&#x27;m not counting that).

What kind of sorcery is this? I mean what&#x27;s a bootleg in terms of software (as opposite to a concert bootleg?)

I just realized - the logos of Windows 3.x through 7 look more like <i>flags</i> than they look like windows. I wonder what the reasoning was behind that? I&#x27;m sure it has been documented&#x2F;analyzed somewhere.

Mildly interesting: no Windows bootlegs from Oceania. I have a hard time believing that the enterprising people of Australia haven&#x27;t created something, at least out of national pride...

Even though I have (like a lot of other folks) become anti-Windows recently, this is amusing, for nostalgic &amp; other reasons.<p>Perhaps that is where Windows fits best -- in the history museum.
