David's Doodles

<< < (56/65) > >>

Andrew Stephenson:
I am still getting organised -- new machine, new AOS-5.1 copy &c -- so could have missed an existing set of the icons I have in mind, but how about some representing operating systems back to CP/M?

CP/M : interlocking chiselled-stone gear wheels with a flint axe leaning against them.
DOS : an ox cart loaded with jumbled letters & digits, towed by bullocks.
UNIX : stacked USian phone books (inc. a C manual) topped by an old button-dialler phone (courteous AT&T reference).
Linux : not sure -- try a parody of UNIX, a heap of paperwork with varied designs of phone & computer having a slightly homebrew look.
OS/2 : (proving we can take jokes as well as dish 'em out) old OS/2 logo backed by a radiant rising sun.
Windows -- abandoned versions : a garish multicoloured Windows logo, one numbered pane broken.
Windows -- current : blue (?) Windows logo fronted by a cowpat/cowflop with a version number on it.  (Okay, getting a wee bit political there...)
eCS : the basic eComStation logo.
AOS : today's logo, possibly without version number.
Other OSes (Mac, Beos, &c) : have fun being inventive.

Hi Andrew

Some of what you desire can be found on line. I do not really have any interest in this.  What little I do is to add a little variety to ArcaOS. I am no expert designer and am self taught.  I takes time which I would prefer using on the operating system IZ use.

The eCS logos can be found on line.

ArcaOS backgrounds come with the system.

Andrew Stephenson:
Hi, David.  Thanks for gracing my bout of silliness with a serious reply.   :)  Following your URLs, one sees the subject has indeed been well kicked about, perhaps more than it merits.  The only logos I ever improvised for my eCS system were simple things, like a WordStar one which I probably must enlarge when my AOS system is working; but at least we're only talking about a star on a plain b/g.  Simple is good with logos, methinks.

Thrive.
