I used 98.css as starting point for the Winamp theme in https://chiptune.app. It was very easy to modify and extend, thanks!

This is awesome. IMHO things like this were the whole point of CSS. Nice job!

You nailed it, I'm glad you had a good outlet for it.

Thanks for creating this, it fit perfect for a tiny web site I made[0]. Hits just the right mix of usability and nostalgia and makes me want to use it for more projects. [0]: https://www.mathsheets.net/
Off topic, I love your site - it's a perfect homage to a loving family tradition (even if it was only for a couple of vacations). This site is, I think, an example of what a beautiful internet could be (and maybe is, if anyone knows got to find more sites like this-really authentic stories). Now, I hope I'm not being fooled by an AI generated story, but even if I am, I am happy to believe in that illusion.
Edit: After reflecting on this situation, your creation, your art: the css library paired with your story gave me a modern day Norman Rockwell dopamine hit. This has been an absolute experience, bravo to the collaboration!

Thank you so much for your project! I have spent the last few months working on my own retro computing CSS library, but instead inspired by BeOS https://beta.mtechnic.me
PS: while doing research on my project, I found your portfolio site as well. Was shocked to see we had the exact same taste in music, and genuinely made me curious if everyone whose doing retro throwbacks libraries did as well.

#49This is lovely.
Re: 98.css
#50Very authentic almost down to the pixel. I love it! Btw default buttons like OK should have a thick black outline. Also windows UIs loved group boxes and radio buttons and checkboxes. I notice those are missing. Also it seems that the dropdown is missing.
