Two archivists are uploading hundreds of Windows Desktop themes that were from the 1990s to the Internet Archive, filling the website with old, nostalgic fan art that you can download to set as the desktop wallpaper on your device.

The file containing the desktop wallpapers, dubbed README, comes with little artist statements, such as “I decided to make this theme after trying several that I found on the internet that I was just not completely happy with,” written in 1996 Simpsons theme. The wallpapers include different statements from a fan of pro wrestling, Star trek: The Next Generation, the Fire Fighter of NYC, and a lot more.

If you know these images or are familiar with them, you have probably grown old.
