Definitely bring it back. What in the hell were you guys thinking getting rid of that button? It has earned its keep.

And the orange favicon exclamation point.

If there's something that makes woot.com original again, then it's the "I want one!" orange button.

Count me in!

If you use firefox with the stylish extension you can install this userstyle to get the orange favicon back.

Big "aye" here. New "dark lime" theme does not scream "buy" to me!

Careful Daj, they may make your user name into a filter again!
The button on my computer looks gold. I'm not lovin' this baby poo green however!

DA59 wrote:I ain't afraid of no stinkin' filter!

Gold isn't orange!

Come on people! Let's be heard!

I have to agree that I prefer it orange too!

As far not being afraid of no stink' filter...be afraid, be very afraid of Gatzby. Next thing you know instead of it saying DA59 wrote, when others reply, it might say, "I want one, I really want one".

You know that will go into the randomly quoted posts thread each time it shows.

I want the orange "I want one" AND the "exclamation mark".

Give me my orange I want!!!

Next thing you know the w00t off lights will be gone... cuz god forbid they put orange and green together. In their place will be generic red and blue police lights!

The 90's called, they want their web page design back.

Yes, bring it back, although I am starting to doubt that Woot truly cares about it's original and faithful members.

If you don't bring it back, Woot, I will hate you forever.

Interesting. At least I have learned enough css to be dangerous now from this experience.

Thanks!

I took your style then I encoded my own woot orange icon without the white box around it and now it is pretty close

I also made a different style changing colors of every object I can find on the page. I may figure this stuff out yet. At least I have lots of orange back.

I'm in.

Petition signed.....
Woot = Orange + Green
not
Woot = Green

Me too. I want the orange button and orange exclamation point!

DA59 wrote:Sign here. No complaining about the design. Just sign if you want to see the beautiful iconic orange "I want one!" back on woot!

I want the orange back.
But I really, really, REALLY want the ugly, puking green gone!!! Yellow, orange, pink, are ok, just not this awful green.

Wonder if the woot off lights changed too....Hrmmm.

ORANGE ORANGE ORANGE ORANGE ORANGE

Orange you glad the new Woot button is gold? NO!

Orange you glad the "big gold button" isn't gold? NO!

Orange you glad I'm making lots of punny references? NO!

That would be even better.

Let's get our beloved orange " I WANT ONE " button back, also if you can bring the old orange color and lay out at the same time it will be really appreciated, Thank you Woot, we still love you...

I can fix this for you using the stylish add on for firefox!... give me a few minutes

REMOVED TO AVOID PROBLEMS WITH WOOT

@lrgraham14: be careful friend, I think you're on a slippery slope. It's one thing to tweak colors and push around a site's objects. It's something altogether different to overlay with something from an external site (even if it is their original graphic).

Good call, its not worth getting in trouble just to help a few wooters, if woot cares they will listen to you guys

I emailed woot to see if i can have permission to post the stylish script... ill let you know what they say

Ok i talked to a friend who said that what i have done should be ok, the worst that will happen is that if woot really dosen't like it they may send me a "cease and desist" which would just mean i would have to remove the script and images, woot is usually pretty cool about things like this, so i don't think there will be any problems, but if you guys at woot want me to remove it just send me pm or email and i will be happy to do so

But anyways here's the script that will replace the New yellow woot 3.0 button with the old woot 2.0 orange button that we all know and love!

http://userstyles.org/styles/14034

It can be downloaded as a Greasemonkey script or a stylish script

Have Fun!!

That was quick and painless, thank you so much!

Here she is, Old Glory, suitable for framing..

(click for the bigger version!)

Even after giving it a week to get used to the new one, I still prefer ol' orange.

Doesn't it make you a little sad? I miss the old woot Old snark, old color scheme, old buttons, old snark....

Thanks for the Favicon userstyle. Only one problem - it also changes the Sellout Woot icon in my Bookmarks Toolbar in Firefox to orange instead of purple, and it has a white background, instead of a transparent background.

2 questions:

1. Does the new gold button still bounce when something's about to sell out?

2. Will the old style orange button, using the Stylish extension, also bounce?

The old button was so much better. Woot needs more orange.

Yah if your using the stylish script that i made the button will still bounce when an item is close to being sold out, and yes the new button does bounce as well

Here's a link to the script in case anyone missed it above, it will change the new button back to the old i want one button on all woot sites
