What Do You Mean You Don’t Like The Colour?
Apologies to any readers who find the new colour scheme offensive. It’s a part of an ad campaign for Vodafone (go on, hug 100 mates, you know you want to), which not only do we need to pay the bills, but also goes to show how important you guys are to advertisers like Vodafone. If that doesn’t make the pain go away, we suggest patience – the skin isn’t permanent.

This is just weird, the colour scheme only make there ad less stand out.
My eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh god my eyes …….!!!!!!!
they r burning………..
I actually quite like it, it’s a bit different (insert Kath & Kim joke here).
It’s a bit softer on the eyes… or something like that…
Looks like someone vomited all over my screen!
I don’t care about the colour
Been visiting this site and a few in competition with this site, this one is Awesome, Always got more stuff, and cooler stuff, and generally first to report the latest stuff.
Having a .au Tops it off, thanks Giz
Just finished going through your lego collection, excellent, brilliant thanks for putting this together, found the ones my parent bought me.
regarding the Colour, it’s still the same good site.
just ignored the ads as per normal, didnt make me look more at the ads thats for sure.
You guys must be really desperate for revenue to be willing to change your site design to puke-mustard.
I thought maybe one of those CES exhibitors you pissed off had hacked you and were trying to drive off readers by picked the most repulsive colour imaginable.
Wouldn’t pimping out your sisters/mothers for the cash be easier?
I think Vodafone will be very pleased with the fact that you have named them as the people who have chosen this crap colour we all hate :p
Email me when the colour changes back and I’ll return.
I just though someone had stuffed up… so it wasn’t the Web Master, it was the Advertising Master…
I mean who is the artsy fartsy “Designer” or “Marketer” who came up with this scheme? What made this colour even come into “fashion”?
Unfortunately my place of work also went through a “rebranding” recently so we get to “choose” our colour scheme for our desktop: a putrid shade of green, burnt orange or grey. Most employees settle for grey to avoid vomiting on their keyboard!
This ugly colour shceme brought to you by Vodafone
..so is that a reflection of their products?
This reminds me of the time when Seamus posted a story slamming Telstra.. and because it was a story about mobile phones it was ~sponsored~ by Telstra.. much hilarity
