Thank you for the follow! I enjoyed seeing the dynamic of different cameras (makes me miss photographing, 35mm and polaroids)! Looking forward to seeing you incorporating the database cataloging, searchable information as you mentioned. Some Javascript will get you there :]

Apparently some of those web browsers for FreeDOS support TLS 1.2 so win99.dev might work afterall, with some tinkering

wait mr webmaster, how did you get the scrollbar to work on firefox? did they finally add scrollbar styling support or is it a div?

kirbydogs 4 months ago

oh wait it's a div... tell me how to make it make it like a guide you can find on IE

win1999 4 months ago

firefox still doesn't have proper scrollbar styling. it's a div, or more precisely, a JavaScript-driven fake scrollbar layered over a hidden native one. Still paranoid I didnt migrate all of the bars over and I forgot some dusty neglected app somewhere in the depths...

the core of the system is win98-scrollbar.js, a library that attaches custom scrollbar elements any scrollable div. The actual scrollbar is hidden via scrollbar-width: none (firefox) and ::-webkit-scrollbar { display: none } (chrome/safari). the Win98-style track, thumb, and arrow buttons are rendered as absolutely-positioned DOM elements that mirror the scroll state of the container.

OverlayScrollbars (similar to SimpleBar) was originally an option as well. But you're welcome to use win98-scrollbar.js - although it assumes certain DOM patterns, the two-div split for inset borders, portal dropdown handling, etc

I think designing the Microsoft Agents (clippy, merlin, bonsi buddy...) has been the most challenging endeavor in that it's really hard to make something friendly and helpful without being incredibly obnoxious. I see why Clippy got so much hate after all these years.

Just make him condescending and rude 😂

I have an idea! Remove Clippy, and instead make a weird shape that looks like perfectly bent wax paper with a gradient on it, and put it in EVERY app, not just the office ones! Give it a robot mind, too, so that it'll know how to stop you from accessing sites that aren't "Microsoft Internet Explorer"

I feel guilty that I’m only discovering your site now?? I can’t even describe how marvellous it is, the nostalgia hit like a brick. I like modern interfaces/OSes just as well, but this was my most favourite version of windows, and I can’t believe it can be relived to this degree just by visiting your site.

rini 4 months ago

I’m so sorry in case you’d followed me a while ago, I try to keep up by at least paying a visit back, but I miss people a lot :(

Aw! Thanks :)) Glad you enjoy it. Big updates coming up, if we can get all the bugs squashed!

I really enjoy your writing, and the various ways you've presented your website. In particular I find the typeface, Solway, really soothing and meets the personality well. Thanks for sharing :)
