QSS Themes: Deconstruction of Perfection

"In a world of sterile minimalism and corporate-approved design language, we choose chaos, personality, and the wild west of digital self-expression."

Philosophy

Modern design has become homogenized, sanitized, and soul-crushingly uniform. Every app looks the same, every interface follows the same "best practices," and we've lost the beautiful chaos of personal customization that made computing personal.

This collection rebels against that.

These themes embrace the wild west era of computer customization - when your desktop was YOUR space, when geocities pages hurt your eyes in the best way possible, and when software had personality instead of focus-group-tested blandness.

The Collection

🌟 Geocities Deux - Starfield Edition

The ultimate "so bad it's good" aesthetic. Semi-transparent widgets let a tiling starfield background shine through, while maintaining just enough readability to be functional. Peak 90s web design energy. Current limitation of QSS means that the PNG system and the starfield isn't working.

🎮 Final Fantasy 6 Classic (Windows 3.1 Blue)

Inspired by the menu systems of classic JRPGs. Deep blues, clean lines, and that satisfying "click" feeling of well-designed interfaces before everything became flat and boring.

🌈 Geocities Nightmare

The original geocities theme with maximum 90s assault. Bright colors, garish gradients, and that authentic "my first website" energy. Not for the faint of heart.

🤖 Cyberpunk 2077

Matrix-green text on black backgrounds. Uppercase buttons with neon borders. Channel your inner hacker with this terminal-aesthetic theme that screams "I'm in the mainframe."

🔮 Vaporwave Aesthetic

Pink-to-blue gradients, cyan borders, and that A E S T H E T I C feeling. Rounded buttons and spacing that says "I miss the 80s that never existed."

🕷️ Hide (Pink Spider) - Visual Kei Theme

Dark backgrounds with hot pink accents. Inspired by Japanese visual kei bands and the gothic-kawaii aesthetic. Dramatic gradients meet bold typography.

🌸 Kawaii Pastel Overload

Rainbow pastel gradients that would make a unicorn jealous. Rounded buttons, soft colors, and maximum cute overload. Perfect for when you want your interface to feel like a magical girl transformation.

💿 AOL Classic

Authentic late-90s AOL client aesthetics. That distinctive blue header, yellow highlights, and the nostalgia of dial-up internet. "You've got mail" energy in theme form.

🌙 Facebook Dark

Modern Facebook's dark mode color scheme. For when you want social media aesthetics without the social media drama.

🍎 Mac 90s Greyscale

Classic monochrome Mac interface vibes. Clean, minimal, and channeling that early PowerMac energy before everything got colorful.

🪟 Windows Vista (Aero-inspired)

Translucent blues and that distinctive "glass" effect. Bringing back the controversial beauty of Vista's Aero interface - love it or hate it, it was definitely memorable.

🦊 Firefox Classic

Authentic early-2000s Firefox browser aesthetics. Tan backgrounds, subtle gradients, and that comfortable feeling of browsing the web before everything became "flat design."

🪟 Windows Modern

Contemporary Windows 10/11 inspired theming for those who want familiarity with their chaos.

🪟 Windows XP

Bliss wallpaper energy in theme form. Blue taskbars, rounded buttons, and that distinctive early-2000s Microsoft aesthetic.

🎭 macOS 00s

Early Mac OS X aqua button aesthetics and that distinctive brushed metal look.

🌸 Other themes:

An unfettered list of the horrors we've created in the crimes of being bored at 2pm in the afternoon after a hard days of bug squashing. You too, can be unprofesional, full of joy and laughter as you roll through the horrors of the contents of this repo!

"Perfect is the enemy of interesting." - Someone who definitely wasn't a UX designer

Credits & Liscencing for Fonts & Graphics are Included, a notice MD will follow soon - This is largely in part made for our Dataset Tools application and I was being a nerd. I am not a UI/UX designer (Duskfallcrew) but have a 3 year degree in communication/graphic design. :) Gemini & Claude helped with these!
