I have always felt that the button in the last couple version of Windows was a bit off. This page confirms it: Old school buttons used to stay in a "selected" state after being pressed, but that was not implemented in Windows 8's new UI.
I really enjoyed Motif and the general flat clean look that came with eg TWM and co. I do have a soft spot for the candy Mac styles, and win2k is still my favorite windows release
Ooh, nice! This very much appeals to the historian and former GUI developer in me.
Update: The Pixel Perfect checkbox makes a noticeable difference in appearance. I presume this is because older systems were developed before the advent of anti-aliasing, and were designed pixel by pixel.
Oh wow, that was so cathartic. Thank you for sharing.
A few really nice buttons there, indeed. :)
So interesting to see the contrast between OSX and Windows in 2001.
No wonder OSX felt like the future.
I miss the future.
