CSS Naked Day

Posted by Chris Inch on April 5th, 2007

If you're looking at my blog right now (and if the date is still April 5 when you read this), you may be wondering where my design has gone. It's CSS Naked Day 2007! There's not a whole lot to explain, other than I've disabled my styles for one day, April 5, to show how awesome well-designed web sites can be. The only change that I've made to my blog is to add an HTML comment around my style tag. Everything else has remained exactly the same.

I actually like to remove the CSS from my sites as I design them as well. By removing styles, you get to see how visitors would view your site using a browser that does not support CSS. Many cell phones and portable devices would see web sites like this every day. I believe CSS Naked Day is a great way to promote good markup and style design.

Good points…I would note that as someone who really doesn’t write on blogs much (in fact, this may be my first post), I don’t think the term “lurker” is very becoming to a non-posting reader. It’s not your fault really , but perhaps the blogosphere could come up with a better, non-creepy name for the 90% of us that enjoy reading the posts.
