Chicago95

XFCE / Xubuntu Windows 95 Total Conversion

Chicago95 Desktop

I was unhappy with the various XFCE/GTK2/GTK3 Windows 95 based themes and decided to make one that was more consistent across the board for theming.

Included in this theme:

  • New icons to complete the icon theme started with Classic95
  • Edited Redmond XFWM theme to more accurately reflect Windows 95
  • Edited Xfce-Redmond by dbbolton to be more accurate and include XFCE panels
  • Created GTK-3.0 theme from scratch (based on Win 10 and Mate themes)
  • Plymouth theme created from scratch
  • An MS-DOS inspired theme for oh-my-zsh

Requirements

GTK+ 3.22

Xfce 4.12

(A Window compositor is preferred.) See here if you don't use a compositor.

(Preferred Linux distribution is Xubuntu 17.10 or 18.04) See here for the 16.04 LTS version of the theme.
