Naked for CSS

April 3, 2006

You read that right. This site — along with a slew of oth­ers — is par­tic­i­pat­ing in Dustin’s CSS Naked Day on April 5th, 2006, a spe­cial day in which var­i­ous indi­vid­u­als will be strip­ping their sites of pre­sen­ta­tional CSS, thus drop­ping full trou with only seman­tic markup remain­ing. It’s crazy, I know.

Why did I decide to par­tic­i­pate even if it sounds kind of silly? Easy answer really, I love par­tic­i­pat­ing in weird events like this and also just to show how impor­tant stan­dards really is with­out hav­ing to thump the “stan­dards” bible. Plus, Nathan is par­tic­i­pat­ing and wher­ever he goes, I will follow.

If you haven’t already, why don’t you join the fray and get naked for a day!

Great Shawn! The more, the merrier.

Of course, the “wife” doesn’t get it.

Sounds like a very per­sonal thing to ask some­one to do.…lol. No CSS? What the heck, sounds strangely exciting.

Well, the styles have been stripped and now I feel a bit vuner­a­ble. What did I get myself into? :)

CSS Naked Day…

In the spirit of pro­mot­ing Web Stan­dards along with good seman­tic markup and proper hier­ar­chy struc­ture, Dustin Diaz will start the first annual CSS naked day on 5th April.
Who has the courage to take off his CSS for a day and show his <body> to…
