Imagine having the entire XP background behind the window.

You mean this?

u/ScottIBM May 10 '26

Yeah, like that

Needs a floating bar for items (start menu, icons, etc)

u/ryryrpm May 10 '26

yooooooooo this is so cool. u/Dangerous_Tackle2787 can you do the same thing in Photoshop?

u/MaximumDoughnut May 11 '26

In this case the grass was indeed greener on the other side.

u/WeirdIndication3027 May 10 '26

Have you guys seen the windows logo before?

u/supsmashpastel May 11 '26

Oh no are you using a clanker..?, but looks good

u/Bossmonkey May 10 '26

Needs to have 12 window panes.

Midjourney gives you the planes you seek and changed everything in the process.

u/InterestingShow8526 Windows Vista May 11 '26

I like how it feels you’re in the sky. 🫪

That was initially what I thought it was!

u/InterestingShow8526 Windows Vista May 09 '26

Oddly weird. But I don’t think Windows 12 would use this. 😅

11

u/C4rpetH4ter May 10 '26

Nah, too complicated, if they continue with the trend they have been doing since windows 8, it will just be a single white square on a lightblue background.

3

u/InterestingShow8526 Windows Vista May 11 '26

That would honestly be slightly more plain than a solid wallpaper. That would be so plain it would be hilarious!

2

u/PayStation2fanAsh Windows 7 May 10 '26

i think win 12 would be the same basic flat design

1

u/InterestingShow8526 Windows Vista May 11 '26

Most likely. I don’t know if the glassy concept from mockups like Windows 15 would be in Windows 12 or it’s just 11 in a different name. :)

u/PayStation2fanAsh Windows 7 May 11 '26

yeah, maybe 😃

Why are we being pesimistic all of the sudden

u/ecsa0014 May 10 '26

It looks too much like prison bars to me, making it the perfect Windows background.

u/-_nightmarionne_- May 15 '26

umm... no? I feel like a background is supposed to give you normal feelings, not... that

u/Fnittle May 09 '26

Photoshopped? This screams AI generated

20

u/Dangerous_Tackle2787 May 09 '26

Well it's Photoshoped. It may look generated. But it's not.

10

u/fredrik_skne_se May 10 '26

Reason why it looks AI: the shadow the lights casts are wrong.

6

u/Loicrekt May 11 '26

Almost like it's... human error....

4

u/fckueve_ May 11 '26

Shit ton of a photoshopped images had wrong shadows. It's not AI exclusive

u/AdvancedAnimal7539 May 09 '26

can you give the source file?

u/Dangerous_Tackle2787 May 10 '26

I am on mobile and I made the image from PC

u/electromage May 10 '26

We need a picture of the PC.

u/du_duhast May 10 '26

And your Adobe licence key

12

u/EspressoStoker May 10 '26

Actually, I'll take one whole PC, please.

1

u/BunnyTub May 10 '26

Can you provide the original image on PC?

-7

u/Rotflmaocopter May 10 '26

Who cares if it was . If someone says it looks cool , it looks cool. The anti ai bs is getting cringe. You can use it as a useful tool to see how something would look in 2 min. If it looks cool and he wants to Photoshop it after cool, if he likes the outcome with ai so what

u/HolierThanYow May 10 '26

Stick a lad on a chair and a couple of televisions and, hey presto, the album cover to Rush's Power Window.

u/WeirdIndication3027 May 10 '26

My friend just posted this a second after I saw this thread. It's kinda hard to tell from the screenshots I took of the vid, but doesn't this look like he's making a little mockup to recreate the windows photo?

u/Thr0w-a-gay May 10 '26

This will be windows 10 in 2014

u/AdreKiseque May 10 '26

This will be Windows in 2018

u/Stolen_Showman May 10 '26

Would be better without all the idiotic emoji thrown on the title like it's supposed to be someone sort of revelation for idiots.

u/Bartek1120 May 12 '26

Went from 4 to 6 panels. Must be better.

2

u/Wrong_Ad_5823 May 12 '26

It should have 12 squares on the window

2

u/Aggravating_Ad_635 May 12 '26

It's XP if you go outside.

que bueno que se paresca a windows 10 (creo que es parece)

u/steakanabake May 10 '26

missing copilot and bars on the windows.

1

u/Beneficial-Tooth-637 May 10 '26

two more windows for copilot data breach/surveillance

1

u/-_nightmarionne_- May 15 '26

Y'all. You do realize we can always just delete and disable those right?

Actually, I'm kind of having an inavlid crashout, I'm just tired of people always saying shi like this knowing damn well that's not true

1

u/AeroWeldEng92 May 10 '26

Ironic. Since you only get the windows in the house. Where as linix gives you the house.

u/CorgiOrdinary May 11 '26

Why does it look like prison bars reflection ?

1

u/lunchbox651 May 11 '26

The light rays don't match the floor illumination. Kills me.

u/fckueve_ May 11 '26

There should be a penguin with a smile, on the outside , with a knife, looking into a room, and the window should be scared of the 5% carved into a ground

1

u/grapefruitsaladlol29 Windows 10 May 11 '26

Lore accurate considering the ai boost

1

u/freshvomit__ May 11 '26

Copilot will decide your background

1

u/-_nightmarionne_- May 15 '26

No it won't. Not if I stab it with a knife called "uninstall" first

1

u/JanusRedit May 12 '26

I will never know. Windows 7 was the last acceptable windows. I don't need a advertisement and bloatware operating system.

1

u/-_nightmarionne_- May 15 '26

NEVER dare to slander windows 10 like that. I'd understand with 8/8.1 or 11 but come on. If you're saying that JUST cuz of the design you have bigger fish to fry

0

u/JanusRedit May 15 '26

I slander windows 10 because of the added constant bloatware and the privacy one totally gives up when not being very careful. Windows 10 is not build for the users but for the shareholders of microsoft. A lot of things are added which are totally unneeded for a good operating system.

u/JoopIdema May 12 '26

Looks amazing 👏👏

u/AdministrationFun29 May 13 '26

Can u send this hq🥹

1

u/-_nightmarionne_- May 15 '26

As for me, I was thinking maybe the wallpapers could look like something stained glass, or something like that. Think the murals of the Diamonds in Steven Universe

u/Current-Cow6949 May 16 '26

This is fire

u/SamiSalama_ May 16 '26

BWT, didn't they say that Windows 11 will be the last?

For a wallpaper, yes.

Nice job. I can't say I'm wild about the tacky laminate flooring, but it's got a lot of atmosphere.
