If you want to support but not to send money, download my icon theme from Pling.com Files (2) / main.zip -- it will send them a few cents.
Or download for me this book :-) (I myself can't do it. My Russian payment is unavailable for Europe and USA)

SE98 Icon theme

Description

Enhanced Classic icon theme (used with Win98 Second Edition, WinME, Win2K systems) from MicroSoft Memphis project for GNU/Linux inspired by Chicago95 theme (actually it’s a manual copy-paste fork) of Grassmunk with icons in Windows 98 SE style added and/or created by myself. There are some icons in 16x16, 22x22, 24x24, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64, 72x72, 128x128, 160x160, 192x192, and 256x256 sizes that I've made myself.

Due to the political situation in the world and the likelihood of GitHub being closed in future for Russians, I've created a mirror on Russian git hosting and on openCode.net for this case. It is desirable that they will not be closed for people from any countries :-) But I am afraid that the ability to make commits on GitHub may disappear for me. So, if you haven't seen my activity for a long time, take a look here or here ;-)

The theme is currently in process of creating, so there are some icons from Faenza and Chicago95 themes in it... I want to turn them into a 98's style someday...

Installation

Easy ways to install this theme:

Archlinux and the other distros that based on it:

yay -S se98-icon-theme-git

FreeBSD and the systems that derive from it:

pkg install win98se-icon-theme

Clone the repository:

GIT:

GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/nestoris/Win98SE.git

OpenCode:

git clone https://www.opencode.net/nestoris/Win98SE.git

GitFlic:

git clone https://gitflic.ru/project/nestoris/se98.git

It will create Win98SE directory with SE98 subdirectory. Put the SE98 to your ~/.icons, ~/.local/share/icons, or /usr/share/icons (for all users) directory by copying or symlinking (better for updates).

You can always get fresh update by going to your downloaded Win98SE directory and running the command:

git pull

SVN:

cd ~/.icons, or cd ~/.local/share/icons

then

svn checkout https://github.com/nestoris/Win98SE/trunk/SE98

or

cd /usr/share/icons
sudo svn checkout https://github.com/nestoris/Win98SE/trunk/SE98

Or download the zip from GitHub and install manually :-)

If you want to contribute to the project, you can look at some of the Windows 98/ME/2000 theme style features (Reference). It's in process of creating, not currently English-translated, but has a link to Google-translated itself.
