Hey, I'm Crystal and I practically live in the 90s. This website is mainly to share my creative work (software and artwork).
This website is still under construction.
I make vintage software as a hobby. My favorite target OS's are Windows 3.11 and Mac OS9.
This app is called Iconic, an App Switcher similar to Dock or Plank or Taskbar, but for Windows 3.11. If you have used such early Windows, you should know, it really needs something like this.
Download Iconic v0.1 from Archive.org
I coded it in C and it was lots of fun except when it was frustrating. Charles Petzold's book on programming Windows 3.11 is highly recommended.
Can stick to any side

I create a browser-based OS that runs on the magic of CSS and animated GIFs. It is actually quite advanced, I will post about it soon.
Graphically, of course it is very vintage oriented, celebrating the unhinged craziness that is 90s interface design.
Updates coming soon.
I create (or replicate) tech products in Blender 3D. I am especially interested in translucent materials and surfaces with unusual reflective properties such as optical discs.

I like to be around aesthetic objects.
My photos are not so good really, but they remind me of my design inspiration.

Website + all scripts* by Crystal, made in XED on Linux.
*scrollbars use simplebar, a pretty awesome library that replaces the system scrollbar with a stylable div. I've added extra CSS and script to make it look how it is.
Most artwork by me, except any pixel icons, and the aquarium photo (CC0) is by David Clode used in the splash screen. For artwork I use Blender, GIMP and/or pure HTML/CSS.
Fonts: Dotemp Demo (Personal use License) and Pixel Times
Please credit me if you repost anything I made.
