Title: Cemetech has a new theme
Post by: Munchor on April 01, 2011, 12:41:53 pm
Well, it looks like Cemetech (http://cemetech.net/) has a new template (or theme if you prefer). It's a retro theme and it looks you have both the OS mouse and a 84+ SE mouse!

Here's a picture of it:

I'd check it myself if I were you to see the 84+ SE mouse effect.


I first thought this was just an experiment, but it seems like it is somewhat permanent:

<KermOffc> TechNOM76, , Scout , it's not temporary
<KermOffc> I'm sorry to hear you guys don't like it

It also seems like it's not an April Fools Day joke:

Edit: And yes, I know that it's April 1st; it's an unfortunate coincidence, but I assure you no less real.


To sum up, it's nice to see both TI Freakware and Cemetech are getting new themes and changing their forums, I hope this helps keeping the TI Community young.

More information can be found here (http://www.cemetech.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6007).

Me too, it's a fun mouse. I think someone should make a Windows or Linux and even Mac mouse like cemetech.net's one.

This is obviously an April Fools' prank. Kerm would never seriously make such a horrid website theme :P

There seemed to be a bug earlier, but for some reasons I kinda like it XD. I guess I was used a lot of KHDV and TI-Freakware themes. However, I am sure this is an april fool joke in the way this theme is not gonna replace the old one. The old one is too awesome to get rid of. I hope he keeps it as an option and create different colors of it, though. An orange/red one with the Cemetech actual logo would rule. :P

That said, I wonder how the original site looked like back in 2002-03? I never got to see it before its Geocities era. It would definitively be fun in some ways if Cemetech brought up a new theme based on the original design, just for the sake of nostalgia. In fact we are planning to do this eventually here (although we already started, kinda, with the 2005-06 themes)
