I need to stop looking at that image, I'm having serious flashbacks.  Some good, some bad.

Nicely done, though!

My condolences.  I'm guessing you also play Zork and NetHack?

Now is that the first Zork? The all text ones?

I've played Return to Zork and the last one they put out.

FINE games

I don't understand - is it the classic theme you are talking about? isn't it built into Windows 7 already?

That, and the desktop icons, the classic Solitaire and Minecraft, Sound Recorder, Netscape Navigator, and of course, the ugly as sin tiled background image.

It's a highly customized version of the Windows Classic theme that was built in. I use Classic Shell to get the start menu and windows explorer tweaks I want. The rest is just registry and dll hacks. It's actually really neat how easily it is to customize windows 7...

Does anyone know how to customize the start button icon in the Windows Classic theme by any chance?

Modifying the GUI to look like something it isn't....isn't new.

This is Windows 3.11 ....
