I agree - Solar OS is really good looking :). And probably quite good under the hood as well.

Technically my boot loader, but that's
part of an OS, right?
The background image is temporary until I can make my own. It's 320x240 and bilinear(ish)ly stretched to 640x480. I tried using the GBA's LZ77 compression on it, but the tool I use doesn't seem to be able to handle images that big.
It took me forever to get to this point. That's an EXE that's compiled using a regular install of MinGW. I just used the flags to exclude the standard libraries and ran with that. It's nice not having to deal with a cross compiler, but it might be a pain having the standard libraries for both Windows and Firebird, so I'll have to figure out how to do that... Maybe just use GCC's Windows CRT? But that's a topic in and of itself.
Coming soon(ish) - Having a real video driver instead of the Bochs 'output resolution and bit depth to some ports'...

Not as much as you might think. People think that just because a GUI is good-looking, it's harder to make. No. Actually they all work pretty much the same; it's just colors, gradients and transparancy they give mine the finishing touch
However, it's not complete either. I still need some more mouse cursors, icons and the related functionality. Also true for trees (e.g. for use with directory trees).

Love4Bobbies: impressive GUI
I could do that to mine, isn't too hard(really, you need video fb and mouse device and you can do one easily), but I was trying to make an API and stuff.
anyway, i stopped working on it.
so, good look everybody,

my GUI
stopped working on it after alex told me to.
anyway, continuing working on it would be a really pain cause the Exclaim API is still unstable and not complete.
