S Watkins wrote: Some people just don't seem to have got the message that the DotCom Era is OVER! *grin* It was a stupidly fun way of raising cash for The Perl Foundation. :-) For this purpose, I copied and hacked on the search.cpan.org CSS stylesheet and then paraded the orange-look CPAN around the room on my laptop. Of course, being a wise chap in these matters, I created a template which generated the CSS stylesheet so that I could quickly change the colour and also parade hot pink and chartreuse versions around the room. This seemed to shock people into coughing up enough money to prevent London.pm from having their crazy-coloured ways with search.cpan.org. Probably wise, in the long run. If you want to play at home, you can find the CSS template here: http://andywardley.com/london.pm/search.cpan.css.tt Tweak to your liking, then thump it through tpage to generate the CSS file: $ tpage search.cpan.css.tt search.cpan.css Then tell your browser to use the custom stylesheet.

There seems to be an idea going round (see, for example, http://search.cpan.org/orange.html) that it the whole of london.pm is obscessed with the colour orange - rather than just one rogue member.
