Hi all,

It’s not really about FreeDOS… but it has something to do with it. :)

I thought that maybe if you all like the idea, I could make a GUI shell. It would be exclusive of course. Though, It will be especially for FreeDOS. And maybe also MS-DOS and Night DOS. It’s a sort of a vote. Would you like the idea of a new GUI shell? Something new, newer then the old original (still nice) Windows shells (Windows 1.0; 1.10; 2.0 etc.). I liked the idea, but if no one likes the idea it’s a bit of a pointless thing. Also this will be a second project, where I can work on when my other project (BirdOS) is paused for a bit. Then I can wipe my mind for a bit.. :)

Well, to each his/her own...
"I" personally don't care much about a GUI shell, but other might. However, a general problem, with all of those GUI shell projects in the past is that none of them ever got to the point where they seemed to be useful...

Some things though:

-Can a 16-bit OS load bitmap images?

That has nothing to do with the OS, 16bit or not. That would be a function of YOUR software, the GUI shell you want to produce...
