You had a black background before it was cool. --VVV RPMBG 01:44, 18 September 2010 (BST)
- Is it cool now?
02:06, 18 September 2010 (BST)
- I've done that on purpose. A green fixed-with text on black background plainly has a certain retro appeal for me. (And I'd prefer to use a specific, more "ye olde home computer"-like font to make it clearer, but I prefer even more to make it look good across all browsers and PC set-ups.) And the FU logo is hard to reproduce in ASCII without black background. -- Spiderzed▋ 12:01, 18 September 2010 (BST)
- One of my computers can't see the FU logo, and on the other, it looks like it contains 15 over-sized pixels, four of them forming a stair-ish pattern. I could screen shoot it if you want. --VVV RPMBG 19:55, 18 September 2010 (BST)
- Can't see whatever's there for FU and 404 - any chance of a screenie? 18:30, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- You seem to lack unicode support. The sig is supposed to look like this right now:
