Is the Forums redesign really finished yet?

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, :lol:

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

Hilarious! Too bad I didn't see the new scheme... hmmm... is it still in effect?

yaneurabeya: You can enable it via your Profile.

Btw, i just tested the theme in Internet Explorer, rendering works great there, too.

This look is not a bad idea.
But As is, this look isn't much readable on a good monitor too: at my home i have an old.... :-(

Now i have voted no.

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?

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

best yet is GeNToo.....gentoo on the NT kernel. If this isnt a joke I'm going to shoot myself.

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.

amiatrome · Posted: Fri Apr 01, 2005 11:32 am Post subject:

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!!!!!
