"Webmasters"? I thought that died six years ago.

am I the only one that hates this design?

Personally, I don't like that they all look the same, but having consistency between the sites could turn out to be good in the long run.

Also the "Questions, Tags, Users, Unanswered, Ask Question" and other links that aren't a solid color throw me off. The hand-drawn stencilish style is kind of questionable, it just doesn't look crisp.

I think this is the design of all the sites while they are in beta. Once the site survives the public beta it will switch to a design customized for the site.

Ah that makes sense.
