                          Replacement Windows 95 Logos
                          ============================

				      PACK 1

Revision date:	July 30, 1995

1. Introduction
---------------

    Sick of the stupid blue-sky, everything's perfect in Microsoftland
    Windows 95 boot screen yet?  Well, we were, and we decided that
    we weren't going to take it anymore!

    This is a collection of replacement logos for the Windows 95 boot
    and shutdown screens.  We've made them all ourselves.

2. Installation
---------------

    Ok, first you'll want to know what the logos look like, so I left
    the .BMP extension on them for easier previewing.  Just use MSPAINT,
    QPV or whatever to look at them.  Remember they look stretched to
    twice their normal hight.

    You'll note these instructions are intended for a DOS window.
    Hmm... I wonder why.  :)

    For boot logos, just copy the file of your choice to the root
    directory of your boot drive (see below) as LOGO.SYS.  Windows will
    automatically find and use it there.  For example,

        (from the directory where you unzipped this stuff)

        COPY WARN1.BMP C:\LOGO.SYS

        (if it asks you to overwrite, say yes, but don't blame us)

    The exit logos are stored in your Windows directory as:

        LOGOW.SYS - The cloud one like the standard boot logo.
        LOGOS.SYS - The "You can now safely . . ." message.

    Installing these is just as easy:

        (from the directory where you unzipped this)

        COPY HOLLY1.BMP D:\WIN95\LOGOW.SYS

    Of course, you have to put your Windows drive and directory where
    the "D:\WIN95\" part is . . .

    That's all.

3. The exit ones work, but the boot logo doesn't.
-------------------------------------------------

    If you run Stacker or some such thing, your real boot drive probably
    isn't C:, so you have to put LOGO.SYS on the real boot drive.

4. Other crap
-------------

    We're not responsible for anything that happens to your computer as
    a result of doing anything we suggest with these files (or with any
    files or ideas or suggestions), no matter how stupid you are.

    And no, I'm not going to type in capital letters, so screw off.

5. Who did this, and who can I yell at?
---------------------------------------

    We are: 

    Brad Spencer <spencer@ug.cs.dal.ca>, Bilbo on IRC
	creator of WARN1.BMP, WARN2.BMP, HOLLY1.BMP, HOLLY2.BMP, C64BOOT.BMP

    Dave Whiting <whiting@cs.stmarys.ca>, BaRReL on IRC
	creator of PNKBRAIN.BMP, RNSTMPY1.BMP, RNSTMPY2.BMP

    Yelling at us won't help... see part 3 :)

    Let us know if you like them!

    Thanks to yardbird and WinXpert on #Windows95 for a bit of technical
    help...

6. Release History
------------------

    WARNLOGO.ZIP was uploaded to ftp.cica.indiana.edu before we realized
    that we could make a lot more cool logos :)  All it contained were
    the two warning logos.  This is better.
