Postposted on Fri Mar 08, 2013 8:07 pm

The links back to previous comments are too dark to read easily with the blue theme:

Edit: Even with retarded (seriously... switch back to normal view!) "Flat, reverse-chronological" view these links look "white" to me... Maybe you should switch browser to non-retarded one (I use Firefox, but the Chrome and Safari also work fine) :P

You no longer have a leg to stand on in complaining about personal attacks. Further such attacks will result in enforced temporary vacations.

:lol:
Please kindly show me where "such attack" has occurred in this thread? Or you simply got a PM from an internet browser (was it "Internet Explorer"??? Tell us!) telling you that I called it (the inanimate piece of software) retarded? :wink: You guys and your "ovary-reactions" are just lulz...

It's certainly something with this copy of Chrome, but what I know not. Launching it in incognito mode fixes it, and it doesn't happen on the Chromebook[1] or with Firefox. Can't think of any extensions that should be causing this, and in any case they're synced across all my Chrome instances. Force-reload doesn't fix it either.

It's a mystery. :-?

[1] The Cr-48 and this copy of Chrome are both v26 beta.

Try clearing the browser cache.

I'm using Chrome and it looks fine here, even when switching to your view preference.

That should have been obvious :oops:, and it fixed my problem. Thanks.

FWIW I think the problem originated when we originally fixed that bug and didn't change the name of the CSS file in question. So it's probably our fault. :)
