Shocked until I realised it was an April Fool!
Very funny - I had forgotten it the 1st today. I will keep an eye out in the news as there are ususally some good ones around. But I have to say I was totally taken in by this one, |

I also fell for this joke. I was so upset with the so-called "new gentoo-redesign" theme. |

Or somehow automatically set its contrast and brightness to 0%.

Nothing wrong with this theme, its gently to my eyes in my dark room :)
Edit:
Is it possible to download the theme so I can use it for my own forum? _________________ Amd64 3200+ 1024DDR - workstation

That theme is a, hardly readable, joke. It's April 1st, right? |

Yep, it looks really nice in ie. I think that those people using firefox should just step over to ie too because ie renders the colors better and has better support for transparant png images |

Ok, if this (rather nice) format is an April Fool's joke and (presumably there's only one per-site kinda thing) - then I'm assuming that the 'Gentoo on NT kernel' on the main Gentoo.org webpage is, in fact, the April Fool's.
Which means that this isn't. Ok - I like the colour. |

Oh god. I just tried the gentoo-redesign theme. Reminded me of astalavista.com(not a typo). From hell. Anyway, the theme was just too bad to be believable.
For those of you who fell for it... APRIL FOOLS!!!!! _________________ blog | homepage | alias | prompts |

Hey, we have Portage on Cygwin already. Why not Gentoo on NT? |

www.gentoo.org is a different site from forums.gentoo.org. Please tell me this.....GeNToo was just a bit too much...although rather thought out....I'm still not %100 sure on that one.
Go check out slashdot....nobody's believing anything posted today. They're all crying April fool's on stories posted ....3 days ago. oops. |

More contrast. Period.
Or someone with a sense of useability.
Or someone who hasn't had his head in a bucket of blueberry soup.
It's awful. Period.
(Hoping it's a April 1 thingie). |
