Just because you can doesn't mean you should - robkelk - 04-23-2020

Software engineer Jordan Scales wrote a CSS-only file that makes plain HTML look like Windows 98

I was tempted to apply the CSS to All The Tropes's page for Windows 98, but ATT doesn't have a page for (just) Windows 98. So you're saved from that, at least. Smile

Seeing that, yess the battleship grey I could leave behind, but it also reminds me how much I loathe the current "flat design" fad. Give me some goddamn window borders, at least, so I can tell if what I'm clicking on will pull focus to what I want or pull the one behind it to the front and hide everything!

There is no hell hot enough.

Now if someone could replicate the look of Mac OS 8 through CSS, then I'd be impressed.

I shared this link with my coworkers, by the way, and one responded with this site.
