Chromepop HUD Frame Set
=======================

12 Y2K HUD frames for dark interfaces — pure black with hot pink accents. SVG
plus transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x.

Chromepop HUD Frame Set is a set of 12 HUD frames drawn in the Y2K style,
where everything is flat and printed — thick straight outlines, solid blocks,
no glow anywhere. It contains a primary panel frame, a data readout frame, a
console frame, a terminal frame, an alert banner, a wide status strip, a tall
side column, a square portrait frame and a label tag and a compact badge.

Most free HUD sets are one rectangle at twelve sizes. That is the tell: real
interface art gives every frame its own outline, because a readout, a portrait
and an alert banner do not have the same job and should not have the same
shape. A set where the only difference is width reads as filler the moment you
place two of them on screen together.

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.

Every frame here has its own silhouette — the four corners and four edges are
treated independently, so one frame has a notched top-right and a railed side
while the next has folded corners and a vee on both long edges. None is a
scaled copy of another. The applied marks (hatch blocks, tick rows, barcode
strips, chevrons) sit only on the edges: the middle stays clear because that
is where your map, portrait or text goes.

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 on the flat regions only. Each frame ships its safe margins in
    the specs box, and the sides whose middle carries a notch or a vee are
    marked unstretchable — stretch those and the mark grows with the frame.
  - Draw your content inside the frame, not over it: every silhouette leaves
    the centre empty on purpose, and none of the applied marks reaches into
    it.
  - The glow is drawn as stacked strokes rather than a blur filter, so the 4x
    PNG stays sharp. If you want a stronger bloom, add it in-engine on top
    rather than scaling the sprite.
