Since I'm very interested in computers, I decided I'd make an Operating System in the future. This is something I made in Paint. It will be a reference for the OS I'm making. I will be putting images of these Paint images here. I decided for the OS's codename to be Moonshine. But anyway, tell me what you think!

Future Image 1:


Future Image 2:


Future Image 3:


Future Image 4:



Click on each image to get a better view. Oh, and you know how Windows uses web integration? In my OS, there will be NO web integration at all whatsoever (when I make it in the future using coding software that is. :p)


Please remember that these are made in Paint, and are not actual OSs as of now.

Future Image 2 Notes:
I changed Island Explorer to Island Discoverer. No major changes here.

Future Image 3 Notes:
This image has taken a major revampment. I removed the taskbar and decided to make a toolbar where you can access applications installed on your computer. Also, the icon for Island Discoverer has been changed, and so has the name. If you actually had the OS running, double clicking "Web Browser" would open up Island Discoverer.

An interactive digital clock has been added to the interface, which is movable.

The sidebar on the right is going to be removed in the 4th Future Image. The window layout is still being thought out, but the layout you see here for Media Player is temporary.

Future Image 4 Notes:
A new menu bar has appeared under the main toolbar for access to other things in the computer as well. The images contained inside the Close, Maximize, and Minimize buttons have been removed, now making each button look like the traffic light you see on the road.

Also, a waste basket has been added in conjunction with the digital clock. The waste basket is for deleting documents no longer needed. It is movable as well as the clock is. I might make it to where you can add little gadgets and stuff like that to the desktop (but without a sidebar or a window).

Also, when minimizing a window, what will happen is this: if you were to hit the minimize button, the window would be taken as a thumbnail to the top of the desktop. When you want it back up, clicking on the thumbnail would bring the window back to its original place on the desktop with its size maintained.

It's small, I know. If you want a little better view of it, click on the image.
That reminds me of something... but what...

oh wait, windows.


Its really hard to make an OS... and if you do, make it look less like windows.
 
@DarthGohan1: Island Explorer is a web browser that's built into the OS.

@Super_Naruto: More than likely, yes. This is just the first design of my OS. I may use these documents in the future as a reference for making the real OS.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! HAHAHA HA HAAAAA!!!! Oh boy.
*snort*

Instant type... well... I'd hope my typing would be instant... nothing would be worse than waiting ten minutes to see if your letter turned up.
 
@ Copper: Not to be rude, but I'm doing this in Paint. Remember, this is going to be my future OS. These images will be a reference, if you will. I'll host Beta 2 Paint Image soon.
 
The world 'beta' implies that you've got a mostly working, if a little buggy, product. This is more like pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-alpha.

Do you have any grasp of programming?

but still... It doesn't matter, you need to know a lot of programing. and this is defiantly not a beta...

you know there is a reason that there are only 3 operating systems, right?
What about RISC OS? D: That was the best operating system in the world ever. Fact.

Anybody who was in the British education system in the early 90s will agree with me, I'm sure.

woops, you're right...damn.
 
well there are only three good ones...
and an OS takes a ton of work. I think you are looking for something more like making a desktop theme.... like changing up your icon pics and what your mouse looks like, and if you find a way to change the look of the windows bar....

But an OS unless you are think of the distant future already takes tons of coding..... why else do you think windows is over a hundred bucks? I think I need to go linux after this computer of mine dies


:p but the operating system....that is what allows the programs to run and appear on the screen and actually work, I don't even know where to start with that sort of thing... and I know some machine language...


:p
