Happy April Fools!
It's that special day when we here at pinkbike turn things upside down. This year literally. No girl only sites, no porn sites buying pinkbike, or moto conversions, but just a quick little journey into html, css, and javascript.
Here is what we did this year http://www.pinkbike.com/?flipThe previous years you may remember we turned the whole site into a girl website.

Another year it was a porn website and last year we converted it to a moto website.

This year we decided to flip the whole site and most of the work is down, but individual data areas require attention on each and every page, so this year we decided to just enable the flipping the front page.
If you are a html/css programmer you can probably realize that this is not easy.
1. The actual text is upside down.
2. Photos on the pages are upside down. This is actually done on the client side with filters and canvas instead of server side flipping.
3. The actual layout elements like boxes and the column layout is reversed.
It's 3 am and we've been at this for a few hours now so it's time to fire it up.
Happy April Fools and hope everyone has a great riding season!
NOTE: The hope page flip is available into the future at the following location
