Anyone know of good old icon sets and tiled wallpapers that would fit with my CDE theme?

I have a nice CDE theme for XFCE (https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1231025/). I am looking for a nice old looking icon set and some tiled wallpapers to give it more of a 90s look. Any help would be appreciated.

I can't help you with your question, but: that is some damned impressive work right there. If I didn't know any better I'd swear I was looking at a genuine CDE desktop. Nicely done, sir.

I can't help you either, but my greatest compliments on the task you have achived. It looks very very good!

Thanks guys but that's not mine. ? I meant I use that same theme in that link. I did, however, manage to find an even more authentic CDE experience here though: https://github.com/NsCDE/NsCDE
I use the "Chicago95" windows 95 icon pack included here which is the closest to the look I'm after: https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95

I used to have some good ones on the forums of my old OpenCDE site here: https://web.archive.org/web/20100627122434/http://devio.us/~kpedersen/index.php

But it seems that the way back machine hasn't archived everything. Perhaps you can extract some of the stuff from CDE here: https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/code/ci/master/tree/cde/

Thanks for that! I'll see about trying to make a GTK icon pack for those.
