Chromepop Card Frames
=====================

11 Y2K card, currency and notification components for dark interfaces — pure
black with hot pink accents. SVG plus transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x.

Chromepop Card Frames is a set of 11 card, currency and notification
components drawn in the Y2K style, where everything is flat and printed —
thick straight outlines, solid blocks, no glow anywhere. It contains four
rarity card frames, three currency counters, a notification badge and three
toast banners.

Rarity is almost always encoded as a border colour, which fails twice: it
disappears in greyscale, and it competes with the item art, which is itself
coloured. This set encodes rarity as structure instead.

No gradient and no halo: the whole set is flat colour with a heavy straight
outline, which is what separates the Y2K poster look from the neon one. The
silhouettes are composed corner by corner rather than scaled from one
rectangle, so a badge and a banner in the same set do not share an outline.

Inside that style this is the Chromepop reading of it: a dark interface on a
pure black palette with hot pink accents, built around a single bordered
frame, chamfered buttons at 160x44, hollow-cored bars divided into 12
segments, and two-tone icons on a 24px grid. Those measurements are why two
families can share an art style without being interchangeable: the style
decides how an edge is drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

Each tier adds a countable feature — common has none, rare adds two corner
brackets, epic adds an inner rule and four brackets, legendary adds a crown
band. You can tell them apart at thumbnail size, in a screenshot, and with the
colour removed. The toast banners keep colour to a 6px edge stripe so the
message text sits at the same contrast in all three tones.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x,
so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change
a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Chromepop family,
which means this kit and the Chromepop panel kit line up without either being
resized. A good fit for retro-futuristic menus and poster-styled interfaces.

HOW TO USE

  - Nine-slice the card frames on their flat edges only; the corner brackets
    and the crown band must stay in the fixed corners or the rarity signal
    stretches.
  - Put the item icon in the recessed art area and the name on the two label
    bars below it — the frame is sized for a 1:1 icon.
  - Use the badge as an overlay anchored to the top-right of an inventory or
    menu button, and draw the count with your own font.
