Make your website pop with glossy Web 2.0-inspired design.

My personal site has been rebranded to work with the new style.

The part I'm most proud of is my interactive theme editor. Using this tool you can see a live preview of your own custom color scheme, grab a CSS snippet to use it, and get a live accessibility report on your color contrast.


edit: i updated the screenshot. i went way harder on textures this time. it turns out the "concave" texture looks really good on cards. and i wanted to use more stripe texture. compare with the previous image.

in reply to @wavebeem's post:

the fun part that comes next is me migrating my side project websites to use this, like color-combos, jpeg, kaomoji, etc. i originally made these sorts of projects so i wouldn't get "stuck" making a UI library from scractch for every new project

I am the last caretaker of a legacy cms for a niche client sector, and its admin page was designed at the first peak of web 2.0 and hasn't been changed since. You have perfectly captured the original web 2.0 aesthetic, like I could swap this in for the current css and nobody would notice (if there's anybody left to notice).

that sounds like a bug in the nightly build

i've been doing most of my testing in firefox developer edition 124.0b6 (64-bit) on windows 11, but i've also tested in chrome/edge/safari on windows/mac and i've never seen this

importantly, there are no cross-origin stylesheets on that page, so the error message is wrong at the very least

btw i just tried in firefox nightly 125.0a1 (2024-03-03) (64-bit) on windows 11 and i can't reproduce the issue

perhaps there's a browser setting or extension causing the issue?
