OS-tan Talk / Re: OS-tan hot takes
Last post by Lily1027 - June 11, 2026, 09:04:03 AMQuote from: thetitanflix on June 09, 2026, 03:13:53 PMHot takes? Hmmm,
Well, I definitely agree with what you're saying! People only seeing Nanami as this random character to use in the Aero aesthetic is pretty infuriating, it's actually part of why I view that certain aesthetic in a negative light. You would think Windows making a short reel on OS-Tans some time ago would drive up interest (Technically it did, but you know the modern internet...)
Yeah, it also makes me mad. I don't mind when someone uses Nanami in something frutiger aero related, if someone for example, makes something like "Madobe Nanami Frutiger Aero edit", but what makes me mad is when someone for example makes something like "Some Frutiger Aero edit with some random 2000s anime girl" and there is Nanami.
I like the Frutiger Aero and the 2000s aesthetics, but what I don't like is that some people into these aesthetic doesn't really know what is Frutiger Aero and what is Y2k design etc. For example, some Frutiger Aero edits uses those icons and stuff from Windows 95, but Windows 95 isn't even considered as Frutiger Aero.

OS-tan Fan-Fics, Comics and Fan-Stuff / Re: teku-a-fool's collection
Last post by Bella - June 09, 2026, 03:13:12 PMI was REALLY hoping the next MacOS release would be Big Bear because I wanted a Big Bear-tan. But your design for Golden Gate makes me happy for what we got. I like the bridge suspension braids, and the pointy "cat ear" details! She's very cute. ^_^

Last post by tekuafool - June 08, 2026, 09:55:07 PMwell, its time to expand the macos family since macos 27 Golden Gate was just announced.
I'll probably adjust some things later but I'm trying to make her look like an assistant and also trying to tie in the Golden Gate aspect a bit (but no too much) with the pointy bits (making them look like pseudo cat ears).
I like to think that she can adjust her glasses to be either more "clear" or more "tinted".

OS-tan Fan-Fics, Comics and Fan-Stuff / Re: Sources for Mac Manga that...
Last post by Bella - June 04, 2026, 08:44:49 PMOne of the tragedies of so much OS-tan stuff happening on relatively small forums is that a lot of it has been lost to time. Plenty of media that originated on Futaba Channel & +Nijiura+ blew up to the point that it's still being circulated to this day, but I couldn't hazard a guess how much stuff from Pixiv, dA, various fan sites, etc. is gone now because of age and folks moving onto new interests and online personae. OSC is old and comprehensive (I don't know of a larger archive) but has always served a niche userbase, even at its height, so most of the art that originated here ended up siloed here. Which is just as well for many of us who do this as a passion project, but makes preservation efforts fairly challenging.
Welcome, and please do! OSC is a great little piece of old internet and I'm glad new people are still finding & making use of it.
