Back in the day Swing was so cool because you could make your app [look like a napkin][1]. Of course most of us don't think much about desktop apps or applets anymore, so the Napkin craze faded away. But I'm here to say that [The Napkin Skin is back and better than ever][2]! And now it's based on web technology that people actually have and use. For more info about how [Eylon Stroh][3] created this work of art, check out his blogs:
