true. I remember when the internet was 'booming', certain people like reed and amidog put up websites that looked exactly like the amiga workbench. there's even a few of them still online. a wordpress theme would be cool aswell though!

I did a Vista based them for websites which I could adapt to look like the 1.3 Workbench desktop quite easily given some spare time. Been planning to do this anyway. So it will have menu bar at the top(maybe), clickable icons and auto-scaling border graphics for the window surrounds etc for the folder windows.

When I'm done I will do a simple webpage and you can just leach the whole simple page to play with the source.

It's not a Wordpress theme I know but hey :)

Shouldn't take too long, just need to find my old html templates and inspect the size of the portions of the window boxes that make it all scale automatically as you type. Vertical is 100% auto, horizontal width of the tables will need some minor tweaking outside the arbitrary ones I layout in advance :)

I realise this thread is many years old, but is there still an interest in a Workbench Wordpress theme?

The reason I ask is that as an Amiga fan and as a Wordpress training exercise I'm building a Workbench 3.1 Theme (responsive and with working clock!). It's a personal project but if there is genuine interest in the theme I could probably find time to develop it further or 'GitHub' it and share the development.

Anyway I have a dummy site sitting here if anyone is interested: http://www.mattdrew.co.uk/wordpress/amiga-workbench/

Sorry for the necroposting, hey lostproperty, have you released this cool theme? I'd like to test it! Thanks :)

Very cool. I love that I can move the clock :)

Either I have some weird font issue on my browser (Firefox 3.6.22) or you have a typo that noone appears to have noticed:

Amiga Workbench  7,995,544 graphics men 0 other men


Men?!  I think you mean Mem ;)

That is very cool indeed!  My only comment would be - are the windows/icons antialiased?  It would look much cleaner if the original graphics were scaled without any extra magic.  We like the clear pixels.

Otherwise, fantastic.  Yes, please do develop further!
