This is fantastic! I’ll have to take a look at the licensing, id love to implement this on https://framestr.com as an available form skin.
For the checkbox: Every time you click on the same one, the image changes. How do you achieve this apparent randomness?
The shapes are calculated with randomness at every render. i.e. it's not a single image that I turn on or off. It calculates and draws it every time it changes.
/just kidding.
This is fantastic! Very useful to get a concept into the browser and hopefully minimize clients focusing on visual design preferences too early in the process.
We did that with The Sims. The programmers would sketch up stuff in Microsoft Paint as ugly as possible, to make it clear that it was just placeholder art: https://i.imgur.com/4yh7Bqt.jpg https://i.imgur.com/oMbtAL3.jpg Q: Were these screenshots taken when you were working at EA/Maxis? A: Yes, these have placeholder "programmer art" that looks really shitty on purpose, so nobody mistakes them for final artwork! Q: I…
1. Clearly not the intended final design
2. Let’s us quickly see issues with our theming infrastructure.

>The procedure tk_bisque is provided for backward compatibility: it restores the application's colors to the light brown (“bisque”) color scheme used in Tk 3.6 and earlier versions.
TCL/Tk even provides a convenient built-in procedure "tk_bisque" to reset the application's color to the Bisque color scheme, which was documented with this warning:
