Times like this I wish that I could apply audio to HTML elements through CSS. Clicking these buttons, I’m hearing the accompanying sound effects in my head.
Great concept, but, at least on my Firefox, it’s suffering from the same problem as my re-creation of the classic Mac OS Finder for use as a skin for mod_autoindex-esque functionality… the font’s hinting information is insufficient to snap it to pixel boundaries and the majority of the text looks blurry because what should be single pixels are smeared horizontally across two.
(If I can ever find the time, I’ve got a copy of Haralambous’s Fonts & Encoding that I’m planning to dig into to try to resolve that.)

This also reminded me of the early UI of Steam! What a nostalgia blast.
Nice! Reminds me of sweet times
That is cool. Though if I’m not mistaken, I think this style was introduced with Half-Life 1, and Counter Strike just inherited it.
cs 1.5 didn’t have it. so I think you’re mistaken. it’s a steam thing
Definitely a steam thing and it really should have been called vgui.css !
Oh, the Valve dev wiki has more info: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/VGUI_Documentation
