Slashdot CSS Redesign Winner Announced 882

Posted by CmdrTaco on Tuesday May 30, 2006 @02:00PM from the don't-need-me-any-more dept.

The winner of the contest is Alex Bendiken. He will receive a new laptop as well as bragging rights as the creator of the new look of Slashdot. You can see his winning design in a near complete form now. Feel free to comment on any compatibility issues. We plan to take this live in the next few days. There will undoubtedly be a few minor glitches, but please submit bug reports and we'll sort it out as fast as possible. Also congratulations to Peter Lada, our runner up. He gets $250 credit at ThinkGeek. Thanks to everyone who participated- it was a lot of fun.

I really like the current look of Slashdot. What was the point in changing it? Just to change it?

Seemingly because sans-serif fonts in fashion now.

While his design is very clean, it's still the same. You should allow people to submit radical themes, and then let people choose a favorite in their profile. Slashdot... news for green things by people who like green things.

Really it *should* be put to a vote. We're the ones who have to live with it.

It's not like the editors ever read the site anyway... ;)
