You may be wondering "What's with all the bunnies and the pink?" Part of what makes this Support board so unique is the members of the Community. Over the years, the most random topics have been the source of unanticipated entertainment. Two such items are the birth of the "Pink Revolution" and the "Bunneh" fad. The Pink Revolution originated when former staff member Rory, began using an image in his signature that said "Pink Revolution". That April Fools, he made a Pink skin, which was met with mixed reactions by members. Overall however, it was a memorable event. We have reused that skin for other April Fools. This year, Tony converted the skin for Zetaboards. Nicola made the logo. The "Bunneh" Fad occurred in the course of conversation between staff. When I asked what avatar I could use without being ridiculed, Seth, a former administrator, suggested: He then decided he would use it. Several of the staff then decided we too would use the image and recolored the image many, many times. Inevitably, members noticed that the staff all had a stuffed bunny for an avatar. They began to join in. The Bunneh fad lasted for a few weeks but it quickly became a part of this Board's history. Homestar made a website that contained the Hall of Fame and Hall of Shame for the best and worst bunneh avatars. You will find that the Avatar Gallery contains two new galleries. One contains the bunneh avatar that the staff and community members used. A big thanks to Homestar and several former staff members who provided several of the avatars from the original fad. The other gallery contains avatars of famous bunnies for your enjoyment. Both galleries are temporary for this day and will be removed at the end of the day. If you do not wish to see the April Fools theme, you may simply choose another theme from the selector. We've gone to great lengths to ensure that changes only affect the April Fools theme and not the board template. Enjoy the theme and be sure to thank Tony and Nicola for their contributions.
