So it's partly lost media... Nice..

Well, that seems like everything needed to get stuff going, thanks, Bella!

I think I'll still stay roaming around on these forums, you all seem like a nice bunch of folks!

While on the topic of getting old sources, Mac Party.

Same deal as Mac Manga, I see the thread, but I don't see any type of source...

I assume you mean Mac Party Redux. That was a comic by one of our old members, Aurora Borealis. I'm not sure it exists in full anywhere on the site anymore, image host link rot has not been kind to the things posted here (nearly 20 years ago now). Some of it still exists on the old image gallery archive.

IIRC, Mac Party Redux was inspired by Mac Manga, but dropped the NSFW elements for more straightforward comedic scenarios. Given the name, I assume she made an original "Mac Party" but I'm not familiar with it - probably before my time here on OSC.

Aurora was a prominent Mac artist responsible for OSC's homegrown Mac-tans. Primarily, personifications for Mac System 1 through 7. (7.5-tan, 8-tan, 9-tan, 9.1 & 9.2-tan all originated on Futaba or Nijura, AFAIK.) You can see art of them at the archive link I posted, as well as chibi form here.

Oops! Never seen this one!

But, as many as possible, Sonata, OSX, OSX variants, and hopefully anyone else that has enough information

May be worth mentioning the artist Esu. They are a prominent artist responsible for many of the most popular representations of OS X versions. https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/276388

Oh yeah, I like making art for lesser known characters/designs ^ ^. Popular characters, obviously, have plenty of art imo (not a bad thing, of course)

She looks great! Thank you for showing love to some of the less well known -tans, there's a lot of baller -tans out there that are either super obscure characters or one-off designs that never really caught on.

Well, drew it clean.

Feel like this one would work well as an advertisement for the iMacs (back when they were new, heh)

...

Either I suck at searching or there is just no info/credits for this one. Either way, I wanted to give her a full body illustration.
