So, I'm not keeping up, but wtf happened to the front page? Why are there google ads and a search box that says 'corporate takeover' by default? Why does it looks so damn ugly? It's all pink and blue and says Uncyc 2.0. Prolix 08:55, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

• It's a reskin. It's supposed to be a Web 2.0 parody. - Sikon 09:09, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Hahahaha... I love how the fact that this is Uncyclopedia doesn't clue noobs in to front page reskins...-- » Sir Savethemooses Grand Commanding Officer ... holla atcha boy» 10:04, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
    • Yeah, I guess I'm pretty much an idiot. Prolix 14:54, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
      • Change it back. It's supposed to look like Wikipedia. EmpComm 16:01, 9 December 2006 (UTC) and 82.152.216.196 16:02, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

        • I have a better idea: Why not have someone here who is also a Wikipedia admin (provided such a user exists) reskin Wikipedia for a day to match this look? Then repeat that endeavor whenever Uncyclopedia reskins in the future. --The Divine Fluffalizer - [t m] 17:02, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
          • I like certain elements of this, for example, the fact that it has two featured stories. InfiniteMonkey 17:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
            • Yeah, that was such a good idea. --—Braydie 17:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
              • Wasn't it though? --Sir ENeGMA (talk) GUN WotM PLS 18:08, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
          • The only user who's a sysop here and there is User:David Gerard. But I'm guessing he won't be randomly reskinning wikipedia's main page any time soon somehow. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 17:37, 9 Dec 2006
            • Meh; it wasn't meant to be an even remotely serious suggestion anyway. --The Divine Fluffalizer - [t m] 17:45, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
              • You mean you lied? On uncyclopedia? Oh, I'm very disappointed in you. And so is David Bowie. • Spang • ☃ • talk • 17:54, 9 Dec 2006
                • I remember the day I arrived was the AAAAAAAAA! reskin day. (I only wish we could do that again). Crazyswordsman...With SAVINGS!!!! (T/C) 07:46, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
                  • I'm all for a KHAN! KHAN! reskin next time Memory-Alfalfa has a birthday. With pictures of Ricardo Montelban everywhere. I'll even work on childishly copying the AAA! code to do it... Berogen^VFH 01:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
            • Am I? :-O I thought Keitei was too ... there must be others. Mindspillage is now on the WMF board, so making her an admin here would be a marvellous possible conflict of interest - David Gerard 19:59, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Anyway, Uncyclopedia has been bought out by Google. Soo... none of you have the ability to write articles anymore.   t o m p k i n s  blah. ﺞوﻦ וףה ՃՄ ண்ஸ ފއހ วอฏม +տ trade websites 17:47, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Sure we do; from now on, we will work to our best efforts in order to praise our new, most gloriously googly leader. Long live the Democratic People's Republic of Google! --The Divine Fluffalizer - [t m] 19:26, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Dun dun dun... - Sikon 19:35, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

PLEASE!!!!! Don't let this be the main page! I hate it! I'm starting a petition to get it removed! It must be back the way it was forever! Don't change it! If you owners of Uncyclopedia want to give Christmas gifts, give us the gift of giving us the old main page!

Go to my userpage to sign.

Cheddar Cheesia 20:35, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

It's just a temporary reskin, and shouldn't linger more than a day or so... no petition needed. The regular page will be back soon. --The Bard of Uncyclopedia 21:01, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

You can never be too careful. Also, not to be rude at all or anything, but if it won't be here for long, why was it put there in the first place? Is the owner trying to pay the host so we can get the old skin back?

Hey, that kind of reminds me of how the Euroi-::is taken down by a sniper::--<<>> 21:30, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Break his legs, too. Can never be too careful. --KATIE!! 23:39, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, skin him alive and drop him in a vat of vinegar and tiny glass shards. - Nonymous 00:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Nuke him from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. --The Divine Fluffalizer - [t m] 02:24, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

• This page is messy!!!! (also, I'm surprised that a dump post has so many posts this quickly... I was on literally a few minutes ago, and it was normal then.) Jedibob5 02:59, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

A normal Forum topic? Where? Quick, somebody shoot it before it infects the rest of the herd! /me chases this forum topic from a few minutes ago around with a gun of some sort.--Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 04:52, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

• • The new design fuckin' sux. Csm.grfD (Native American laughing) 05:56, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Can we chill out just a little bit? The design is still in beta. It can be tweaked a bit more. Our acquisition by Google gave us the opportunity to finally break free from our old, tired Wikipedish design. —rc (t) 06:03, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
