10 Sep 00 - 07:30 AM (#294493) Subject: RE: new thread print color From: Bud Savoie I thought "teal" was the color of the permanent threads at the top. This is a sort of puke green. |
10 Sep 00 - 07:43 AM (#294501) Subject: RE: new thread print color From: Jon Freeman Bud, I take it you mean the text that you read in the threads like this post is a funny colour. It sounds like the problem lies with your computer. If you are using IE, check Tools/Internet Options and on the General Tab, click colours, maybe the text colour has been set there. The Netscape equivialant is Edit/ Preferences and Appearance/ Colours in the tree list. Jon |
10 Sep 00 - 08:01 AM (#294504) Subject: RE: new thread print color From: Bud Savoie It's not the text, Jon. It's the color of the thread names after they have been punched. They go from blue to the abovedescribed goosey color. Above what I am writing now, the "post-Top-ForumHome" is in caca d'oie, while the "Translate" is in the familiar blue. If the problem is with my computer, other websites should have similar problems, but they don't. You mean I am the only one with this change? |

10 Sep 00 - 09:47 AM (#294538) Subject: RE: new thread print color From: Bud Savoie Thanks, Jeri. This color is beginning to turn my stomach. Bud |
10 Sep 00 - 10:00 AM (#294544) Subject: RE: new thread print color From: Bud Savoie Thanks again, Jeri. I think my 13-year-old changed it on me. It is now a blazing red. Whoopee! Bud |
