Taking a step back from the acrimony, crimsun has a valid point
regardlessof your opinion on the quality of the site to which you
linked.

Using a wiki established by the development community helps to improve 
ubuntu. If the user base turns to other sources for help rather than looking 
within the ubuntu community, it diminishes the quality of the distribution. 
It's not hard to see why.

If you like what you see on the website you linked to, it behooves you to 
help fold it back into the ubuntu community by contributing to the wiki or 
by contacting the page's maintainer about contributing to ubuntu's 
development.

And yes, the fonts are pretty.
