Boot Logos !!
« on: July 17, 2022, 05:52:53 pm »
Hi

Just as amusement and I had been collecting the OS/2 Boot logos that we have around, included an PNG and TXT file of it, rename the files as .LGO and release it as a single package.

The "Boot Logos Volume 1" was upload to hobbes on 2021-06-24, with aprox 50 boot logos.

I'm working on the next one (Boot Logos Volume 2) , but for the moment I only have nine.

If you have you own boot logo that you want to share, or any other you found awesome let me know. Just post it here.

Regards

Did you have a look at them?
I had a look at the first few of them and I think they are disputable because they are sexist.

Otaku and Weaboo culture has permeated every aspect of life at some point, especially the nerdier parts  ;D

It doesn't surprise me though. A lot of 90s era tech enthusiasts tend to have a passion for manga and anime - and a lot of non-Windows users from that era were also into it.
I'm not sure what actually causes the overlap, I just know that it's there.

Hi

But while we discuss this, I encourage you to upload any other boot logos I may be missing on this collection.
If you have something cool for boot logos just share it up.

I noticed that this will change when ArcaOS 5.1 gets released, since the UEFI boot now allows higher resolutions formats. Not sure which format yet.
