I readily admit I'm taking some pixeliberties with it. :) The font's because of me, and the purple title bar, but I think I grabbed those grays from 98.css. I might change them to values in my own color lookup table.

...God DAMN dude, don't bury the lede! You made this? http://kristopolous.github.io/BOOTSTRA.386/demo.html This is gorgeous!

It has bugs. I need to go back and fix it.

Your actual Easter egg is really solid. You got lots of small details right on about that one.

Oh good lord. I may have just found the next redesign for my website. That blows this completely out of the water.

I'll be doing a v.5 eventually and fix up v.4 - looking like August.

This isn't a bootstrap "theme". It's more of a fork, the code goes through significant changes but maintains compatibility.

It's used in weird places, like on Gentoo for April fools 2015 : https://jappie.me/website-launch.html (images go through a number of filters to emulate ega-16 color reduction).

Pretty funny to see this as one of my most successful projects. Most people think I'm terrible at front end design.

I want it to be good enough that I'm genuinely tricked by it.
