oThe "Amiga look and feel" always meant 3.1 and 8 color MWB an MUI


No, it didn't and doesn't. But it's beautiful anyways, at least in this incarnation.

I'm using ToolManager 2.1 with an update. If you can't find it, I'll mail it to you or post it here.
On Aminet you can find Toolmanager 3.1 which has a much nicer preferences editor but it has ugly borders on the panel.

Thanks. It looks good on my A4000T. I still run MWB on WB 3.1. Is there anyway you could make the pictures bigger.. say 1024x768? :)

The MWB icon set and palette was probably the most well-designed and distinctive ever produced. It's certainly the best-looking for an 8 colour Workbench.

In my opinion it was far better than NewIcons or any of the later offerings...

Long live MWB!

Maybe I could. The original images are also included.
