    We used to make our own cards using some Broderbund software (forget the exact name). It came with my favorite screensaver of all time called "Art Gallery" which would simulate an airbrush painting pictures on your screen.

    That Windows alert chime is apparently so hard wired into my brain that, even though I stopped using system sounds in something like 2002, and probably haven't run win9x since then either, I still think that my computer has posted an error every time I hear it. Watching this is reminding me just how gd often Windows felt the need to startle you about something.

    i was very confused since i know they stopped making stuff like this in 2012 just from the title you could tell its a 90s thing. also if this is version 8 i would have assumed they made a new one once a year but then the first version would be from 1990 or the 80s. but it seems the first version is from 1992 so they either didn't release some versions or made multiple versions in some years
