It feels to me you had to be born at specific time to truly appreciate pixelart.

I show it to my wife (who's just 5 years younger), and she's like: "No.".

I love pixel art, used Win 98 as my first OS and still find them ugly as hell. The colors are sad, the perspective is off, and on the first image[1], only 2 icons out of 6 make any sense to me (the trash and the folder). On the second image[2] I understand the wheelchair and the notepad but that's it. These icons aren't inherently easier to understand.

They aren’t very beautiful pixel art icons. Maybe a bit when seen through nostalgia glasses. They are well made though.
