been doodlin UIs in my notebooks that were very windows 98 inspired
buttons raised and indented from a common plane
that gray stone-like material painted with few accented splashes of colors
light coming in from the top-left of your screen to cast depth and shadow to each object
the flat-like icons of internet explorer, the windows start menu, of the folders and notepads
then some hippy UI sons-of-bitches come along and call it "neumorphism"?? okay fine i can get on that, sure, we have more resolution to our displays, more power
make them soft, round, render these sliding stone slates as a softer, rubberier material, okay
return me now to the UIs of engraving and reliefs

yeah music, art, and fashion aren't the only fields where trends repeat themselves. it's about time we start to return to this style
