434712 2006-03-01 00:59:00 I have had my website upgraded and the background colour is a dark blue which shows ok on other computers but on mine it is showing as black and it is hard to read the text, are there any others out there showing a black background? the site is www.turnstiles.co.nz and what is needed to rectify the problem? Im running Microsoft XP and Mozilla Firefox. Please reply to [email addy removed] REX WGTN (9889)
434713 2006-03-01 01:17:00 Hello Rex :)

Welcome to PressF1 :)

Before I go on you may want to read this: pressf1.co.nz & pressf1.co.nz

As since this is your first post this post could be counted to be Spam (Just a hint ;))

I have had a look at your site in IE 6.0 & Firefox 1.0.7(on win xp pro) & I can see the dark blue fine here.

I will post some screen shots shortly

It could be Xtra or something else happing here but it tacks lie 5 - 10 secs before you site to load?

434715 2006-03-01 01:42:00 It doesn't take too long to load for me. Are you on dialup stu?
I don't see any problems with the site.

434716 2006-03-01 01:47:00 Maybe make the text a bit lighter. Not sure if I like the slight blue in the text (what I see anyway). Perhaps something like #eee or lighter would be better, just not completely white so that it can still be different from the headings. mejobloggs (264)
434717 2006-03-01 02:11:00 Just get them to change the text color to the same as the other pages.

Also your contact page could use some css a:link etc, your developer will know what this means

434719 2006-03-01 02:47:00 are there any others out there showing a black background?

HI Rex, i have tested it on my 2 different systems - i get the black backround with off white text & white text headings (which is definately readable though :)) on the XP Pro system, using Firefox and I.E, incidentally this has the better graphics card...

It shows as blue on my win 2000 system with integrated graphics & lcd monitor??? Not exactly what i expected!

Appears i am the only one else who sees it that way too??

A side note, when i tried to save the screenshot, it reverted to different text colour as in Stus Screenshot.

434720 2006-03-01 02:56:00 Doesn't render perfectly in Firefox, the center table ends up with a vertical scrollbar in some pages
Background is dark blue in both IE & Firefox and is easy to read

Only just noticed that. What happens now? Can the admins edit it make it more spam resistant?
