We are proud to announce a for ImprovEverywhere.com. With all of the traffic and press we have been getting lately, it was time to spice things up around here. We’d like to personally thank our designer Ken Newell for his hard work on this new site. Ken charged us only $4,000 for his design (which is half of his normal rate.)
Things are going to be “under construction” around here for the next couple of days as we work out the kinks and give the tires a kick or two. Bear with us. In the meantime, we’d love to hear your feedback on our new look. Leave us a comment below.
UPDATE – As of April 2, 2008 we are no longer using this new design. It ended up only working for us on April 1. If you missed it, here’s a screen shot of the redesign. And below you can see some of the super cool animated gifs and icons our redesign featured.

HOT COMEDY
JUST FOR FUN
Nice April Fools joke. Wouldn’t have been suspicious except for last year’s prank.
I believed you at first, and then thought, no way. This design is awful, so 1996. Great April Fool’s joke!
NEED MORE CONTRAST btw black background and grey?? text. Have laptop on highest setting and still hard to read.
Also, menu tabs get lost in business of photo background at top. Crop photo above the menu, so tabs easy to read.
Thanks! Can’t wait for the next NYC Mission!
Oh my, my my….. This site…is GENIUS!!!! lol…not (borat voice) High-Five on this joke of a re-design lol.. my eyes burn!!!
yay!!
Very nice! It’s got a 1995 Geocities feel to it. I like!
Not enough flashing cyan marquees!
I think if you made the background an animated gif it would look a LOT better. It’ll probably cost an extra $1000 but it’d be worth it. Also I really think your logo should use your new name- “Humor In Public Places” or the shorthand Humor PP
BTW, you totally had me for a second there. I haven’t been to bed yet so in my mind it’s still 3/31 ^_^
You need more blink tags. I mean, how are you supposed to really “catch the eye” without blink tags? Sigh.
if there had been ten flashing YOU’VE WON banners around it would have been like a time warp back to the nineties. I appreciate the cheap .gifs though. The internet needs more .gifs.
awesome
I heard this company called Futurewave is coming out with some vector animation tools for the web called “Splash”. You should look into that. I saw it on CNET TV.
hi kunal!
You’re driving me crazy! I’m in an earlier time zone and I fall for this year after year! It’s still March where I live.
I don’t like it so far. The black in the back ground is kinda putting me off :-(
I can’t believe you’d blatantly steal my gobbling mailbox graphic without asking Charlie. Its bad enough to not ask for my help, but to steal is so not cool.
I’m loving the 1998 look with the obnoxious MIDI playing in the background. Excellent.
Nice scheme! I’d like to apply it to my Gmail Custom Time feature when it finally shows up.
I saw this post all bare and out of context in Google Reader, then thought “Oh, cool, I should check out what the new design looks like.”
This has to be the hardest I’ve ever laughed while Hazy Shade of Winter has been playing.
Man, the dollar really is weak–if this is all you can get for $4,000?! maybe you should try 4,000€!
