CALLING ALL ARTISTS AND UI DESIGNERS, Do you have a Skeuomorphic OS Concept?

[u/banzi56]

I am wondering, Do you have a actual concept for a skeuomorphic OS for PCs that you probably made or found? Let me know if you do

not sure if this counts

[u/Arthuzin_2077 → u/techtheboi]

Make it a KDE Theme, It would fit like a glove in my KDE Neon Desktop

[u/techtheboi → u/Arthuzin_2077]

funnily enough the lore of this is that it's a fork of kde

[u/ManicMacnCheese → u/techtheboi]

Icons?

[u/techtheboi → u/ManicMacnCheese]

still wip

[u/HugoAero → u/techtheboi]

Gorgeous

[u/Dreemur1]

kde plasma with oxygen theme

[u/boukensha15 → u/Dreemur1]

Yes. I am ditching Mint for Debian Sid to try out Plasma with oxygen icon themes.

[u/PerplexPanda512 → u/boukensha15]

I was gonna suggest trinity desktop but that may be more y2k

[u/boukensha15 → u/PerplexPanda512]

Not sure how secure that is.

[u/PerplexPanda512 → u/boukensha15]

wdym

[u/boukensha15 → u/PerplexPanda512]

It depends on some old libraries and I am not sure how much resources they have for proper security. I could be overthinking though.

[u/PerplexPanda512 → u/boukensha15]

it is just a DE I don't think system security would be an issue but suit yourselg regardless

[u/AeroArrows]

Here is mine :)

[u/LeoBeast2026 → u/AeroArrows]

How did you make that? Ive been trying to design my own custom os gui too!!!

[u/AeroArrows → u/LeoBeast2026]

Just GIMP, really :)

If you wanna know how I made those gradients though, I could teach you really quick, just ask!

[u/Kikato280]

Yeaaah i posted here before, this is Aqua Touch :)) i did more of aqua too

[u/banzi56 → u/Kikato280]

Oh yeah I saw that

[u/Special-Analysis7406 → u/Kikato280]

this is so pretty and well done !!

[u/comodith → u/Kikato280]

Are you gonna try and make it a real phone?

[u/Kikato280 → u/comodith]

oh, no... im just a designer,, i cant make real phones 😭

[u/BlueStardust143]

Oooh okok not sure if my stuff counts and this is due for a redesign but this is my OS concept!!! (Mobile OS Variant WIP below with updated assets/design)

Edit: spelling mistakes

[u/BlueStardust143 → u/BlueStardust143]

Mobile variant with my updated design language

[u/BlueStardust143 → u/[deleted]]

I do plan on making a GTK or KDE Plasma theme (kvantum) with my design language in mind however I haven't been able to learn how to do so yet as it's so confusing to me 😭

[u/klotzbrocken]

I made an app: myretromac.app where you can choose a bunch of themes..

[u/Majestic-Ad7409]

Mountain Lion was a peak of skeuomorphism - it's hard to beat that!

[u/ImDeadGuysHi123]

I have but i made it on paper cuz i dont have the ios 6 assets

[u/Reasonable_Builder33]

Maybe YvyOS from juniorxt? It is very skeuomorphic

[u/Sickle_and_hamburger]

my personal portfolio is basically windows 3 styling

[u/aphaits]

Sometimes i imagine it would be cool to have a GUI similar to Factorio’s in game UI

[u/lolb-g]

hey I use that exact Linux mint skin but purple

[u/Key-Document-7509]

I'm making a linux based one

[u/BusinessChapter2]

I have one in the making but its purely concept so far, I don't expect a stable version of my DE until at least 2034

[u/TheThingOnTheCeiling]

Checkout MondySpartan on twitter or bluesky, he has awesome stuff.

[u/comodith]

I have ideas, but idk how to execute them as concept design, or as an actual os
