XP Boot Logos
« on: April 09, 2009, 05:28:09 pm »
Looking for some cool designs if anyone could point me in the right direction. I'd make my own but I'm rather artistically challenged.  :P  I didn't really have much luck googling them either.

Here is a nice collage I use.  It's a JPG, but you can easily convert it to a bit map.

Most arcades had that screen at some point during the ...ah...what's it called...

When no one's playing, that's one of the screens that comes up.

Anyone who played video arcade games in mid 80's to early 90's had to notice it. I sure as hell remember the logo even though at the time didn't understand what it said or what it meant. I just figured maybe it's some kind of seal for arcade games (so many had it back then)

Wasn't this screen part of the attract mode for just about every late 80s early 90s video game?  Or is there something else and I fall into the category of most people?
