Naked in Tahiti (where’s Ms CSS?)

Naked!

Naked again. Why, oh why every year do I feel the urge to cast off the perfidity of style and expose my structure to the world? A question never to be answered, but merely enjoyed on CSS naked day!

Love my semanticness (sp?). Love my form, my structure, my HTML, your browser (which is actually styling the HTML right now,) and markup in general raw and unabridged.

Hey, on an unrelated note, did I tell you about that time in The Seychelles when I was naked and kinda playing guitar with my…

Oi! You have a filthy mind. Enjoy the day folks, long may the tradition continue!

    Dude this is just sick man!

    I read yesterday this was the day, then I think on another site, I thought something was broken.

    They'll probably have it fixed tomorrow then huh?#!

    It’s sort of like a belated April Fool’s day when you think about it, to the uninitiated ;)

    nekkid :)~

    I just noticed via my referrers that CommandShift3 has screenshot the site naked, which is going to make for some interesting comparisons until their next cycle! :)

    I probably shouldn’t say this as a designer, but there are a whole heap of sites I’d prefer to see like this, including my own, for a short time at least.

    I’m finding it a little frustrating actually. I've shed my <style>, but I’m finding all these new sites out there who are naked, and I really want to know what they actually look like!

    Yours is a little less pretty I must say.

    The life is boring without CSS. Keep it! =)

    I like your clean blog but it is way to clean without CSS. Thanks to the CSS!

    Innovative idea – it’s simple, it has social media potential and it’s something almost every website can take part in.

    Awesome idea

    Whoever came up with CSS naked day, obviously had a lot of faith in their CSS-Free web-site. I notice that all people who partake in CSS Naked day, do actually have pretty good CSS coding, allowing the site to remain functionl.
