Platinum9 VS 98.css

Icon theme from Platinum9

Funnily enough I was playing with a couple of old PowerMac G4s a couple of weeks ago (actually wiping them for disposal - though I've since decided to keep at least one!)

I realised very quickly that I'd forgotten how good the OS9 interface is, and how well it stands up against today's offerings. Trying out a lookalike them on Linux [1] is definitely on my todo list:

In lxappearance, I'm trying to change the icons to the ones here https://github.com/grassmunk/Platinum9

I collect niche Operating System CSS!

  - [98.css](https://github.com/jdan/98.css): A Windows 98 inspired framework for building faithful recreations of old UIs.

What would they teach - the classic "complete and consistent" UI philopsophies would be either Xerox Star, NextSTEP, or Windows 98 style - and they're mostly not something you can use any more.

I was thinking more like that Win98.css library

Hi! Recently updated my home server and wanted to try something new. Since making startpages and stuff is fun decided to give it a try to something vintage. I used the 98.css stylesheet which is pretty cool.

Take a look at this, a CSS library that mimics Windows 98.
