    Where did my Design go?

    The idea behind this event is to promote Web Standards. Plain and simple. This includes proper use of (x)html, semantic markup, a good hierarchy structure, and of course, a good ‘ol play on words. It’s time to show off your <body>.

    How to participate

    Fill out the naked day signup form, then your website will be included in the official list within the next hour.

    Then on April 9th, simply remove all CSS from your website, stripping it entirely of its design.

    (Optional): Insert the following snippet of markup at the top of your page on the day of.

    This option for those who feel a need to give their visitors a reference as to what's going on. This is not about getting traffic or making money. There are no ads on this site, nor will there ever be. This is about you, the people; getting naked.

    When is it again?

    A few folks were curious about the date of CSS Naked Day. Here’s a few reasons why it’s on April 9th this year.

    • The date should always be on a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday (most highly trafficked days)
    • It should be near the first week of April
    • It should never be on April 1st (international prank day)
    • There should be at least five days ahead of time before the announcement
