Probably not.

#82Is there a version for Windows 7 as well? Because, that was the last good design from anyone from that era and everything just went downhill after that.

#83This is really cool

#84I remember the gradient in the title bar was a big thing for apps that pulled it off on windows 95.

#85Author here! This was my burnout recovery project and holds a place near and dear to my heart. https://notes.jordanscales.com/98-css-reflections
I used 98.css as starting point for the Winamp theme in https://chiptune.app . It was very easy to modify and extend, thanks!

#86Earlier quoted context omitted.
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: Afte…
I don't have any way to prove it but this was no AI hallucination, a completely true story and human generated site (there is a link to the GitHub on there).
I do appreciate your thoughts and I too hope I'm not being fooled by an AI :)

#88Flat design is so ridiculous. Made someone a bunch of money. Now everyone follows like sheep. Sorry for the doomer comment but, like, really. I'd love to say that I'm surprised that we haven't gotten over this, but given it's been... 20 years (?)... I'm not surprised. Also, the way multi-row tabs Just Work in the UIs of yesteryear *chef's kiss*
> Flat design is so ridiculous.
Flat, or quasi-flat (minimalistic/brutalist), design is fantastic if one makes use of appropriate visual discriminators, e. g. shadows, outlines, contrasts etc. Less is more here. Which makes this design philosophy clash with Apple's, Google's, or their imitators, oversaturated Fisher-Price playdough-UIs.

#89I used this to build my personal site: https://ka.ge . It's a pixel-perfect (and functional) recreation of the windows 98 desktop environment in under a MB.
