So, what UI style is/was the best?
80s, early/late 90s, early/late 2000s or 2010s?
Here are different buttons as the reference.
Longhorn and Whistler had great themes.
I am a flat design advocate (if it's well engineered at least) but somehow xp still gives me the fuzzies

This is one of the flat themes that don't look like shit
Atleast the button from early 90's looks like a fucking button

Is that some Windows Neptune?

I'm gonna have to go with this. If we're going by default themes in terms of default style, I'd say Ubuntu takes the win. It's not one of those totally flat tablet looking styles, but it's also not all plastic bubbles. Does well with color too.

Whistler (XP alpha)
Neptune is basically windows 2000 with a new login page

95/98/2000, XP, and Vista/7 all look the best in this lineup imo.

with what, you mong

transparency is fucking stupid

IMHO flat and edgy is the best,
glossy, rounded corners, mulicolored shadows was just to show off new gpu or software features, form and aesthetics follows function

except that the Windows 95-style button (which is 3d-looking with shadows) is less resource-intensive than the metro Windows 10 button.
XP is the shit

Who needs to care about resources in 2016?
