The Windows XP Frog Mystery…
I love you xp frog
This Windows XP profile pic friend has permeated my brain for 22 years, maybe not that long. but a while so today I set out to find him, and failed. sorry spoiler, I didnt find anything about this frog in the slightest, but I had a good time failing at least,
Thank you so much for watching and for still being here through these 2 months of no uploads, That will never happen again. If it does that means I'm tied up with chains and ropes and chains and you should call the police, in seriousness though thank you for still being here :3, Ill see you in the next one. Very very soon.

13:09 i wanted that phone so bad lol it reminded me of like an upgraded sidekick lol
This and the rubber duckie were my childhood.
It's simple. What killed themes and customization are Hi DPI and hi res monitors. Period. As a developer, you won't want to deal with themes and with responsiveness and hi-DPI all at the same time. So, you deal the the later two, and remove customization. Edit: Oh, you just mentioned in the video (10:05).
Who here played pocket frogs? It was peak nostalgia for me. And tiny tower (the old one, the new one sucks)
oh my... YO it's him!
I miss my slider. Wish they were still around
This is adventure searching for a beloved pixel friend

I’ve had toy frogs that look similar but they’re a different shade of green and they don’t have the darker part on the back
Nokia 7280 was actually inspired by a lipstick
0:53 That ryhmes
Jumpstart was my only experience with virtual words. That shit was fire
Something to keep in mind is that the left eye has a shine in it, but the right eye does not. This might be due to lighting conditions, though. Also the back has bumps. If you look up frog bath toy, you get a lot of extremely similar looking ones, it seems like for whatever reason a lot of frog toys look almost exactly like the windows xp frog Also Joseph is NOT the same frog, because Joseph's eyes overlap with his head, whereas in the xp pfp, there's a tiny gap.
Also, it seems like it might have been from Russia.
Also that technically means Joseph is NOT the same frog. Also because the eyes overlap with the head, whereas in the xp pfp they don't overlap.
The shine might not actually be there, it might just be lighting conditions
I made a clay version of the frog one time, its gone now :-(
I used to have that toy
You forgot about Monkey Quest😢
think my dad had a couple of these lying around
LIPS🔥
As a kid I collected and was obsessed with rubber ducks, and I always wanted that frog too because I could tell it was "squeezy" (aka, made of hollow soft plastic like a rubber duck) and I considered it (as well as the actual rubber duck image, ofc) as potential rubber duck collection material, though never got obsessed with him enough to really seek it out. I kinda forgot about this particular frog, but as soon as I saw the thumbnail I was immediately filled with the warm rush of nostalgia and excitement.
Crazy coincidence you uploaded this a couple days after the polygon donut video where they talk about this frog in it lol
I think it would be a good idea to contact collectors of rubber frogs

I love frog
I owned a windows phone that was superior to those you mentioned. The Motorola MPX. Infact if your hinge design was blown by the flip out.. the MPX actualy opperates in two directions. It had a stylus I implore you to research that phone. I owned the Nokia 9290 communicator aswell back in the day. The odd brick you answered and called closed listened too from its back and had the bannana shaped antena you flipped out but I always needed a real alpha keyboard for my typing .@bjiru Motorola MPX. Look it up
Well mine has a qwerty keyboard

tl;dr we still don't know where it came from
I swear to god I had this frog as a bathtub toy in like 2003
Have you possibly reached out to the CZcamsr called TooMuchSlop? He uses the image of this very frog in a higher definition in his profile pic and many of his videos. It doesn't seem upscaled from the XP icon, as the spikes on the frog's body are clearly visible there.
I am fine with all of it. I like minimalism but also love these kind of things as a art lover, that's why I always hate any rules against Car customization , or just don't like too much simple things that can't be changed. We don't have time to care about these things nowdays but I realize how customization made you feel more in tune with things you own . I never keep the stickers of laptop I buy , and immediately replace it for that reason. I do like minimalism too but done with balance to customization. I love both , a great minimal mental peace room or someone's otaku/gaming/audiophile room , all are nice. It's rather hard to choose but yeah I'm always in for " options " . Rather than moving to minimalism , minimalism should be optional with customization.

Do you have any interesting link to the frog?
I own a shower gel rubber frog that looked exactly like this, but he had yellow text printed on his back
Speaking of this frog, I've recently discovered OS-Tan. For those who don't know, OS-Tan is a meme where Operating Systems are Manga/Anime girls.
