So, I guess we know which theme Drifter, WTFK, and D_Goddard are using.
Tried both; liked neither.
Why did the old themes have to be nixed?

There's even more explanation than that one post if you read the thread.

The folks are experienced and refined critics of design who care very much about their work. You can feel the passion that goes into it.

The spell check is white on white. I believe that this blows chunks.

The text on the far right is missing from the longer posts on my browser, I believe that this blows like a hurricane's fart.

And that browser is? and... what OS? screen shot?

(I'm expecting an edge case)

If you say you are using a hacked version Opera of OS/2 that you managed to install on a commodore - don't expect support.

Microsoft Internet Explorer
Windows XP
Do I have to adjust something on the spell check or will I need to highlight it forever?
Because I believe that blows like pneumatic dildo.*


*never mind I see you fixed it.

Oh, also - if you know your resolution, that too would be helpful.

We'll be fixing the spellcheck issue. I actually already tried to fix it... but it's a little trickier than I thought, b/c the spellcheck is generated on the fly...

Although...

I didn't notice it until you pointed it out because chrome and firefox have built in spellcheckers... and I would easily recommend switching. (but we'll still fix it either way)

Also, what VERSION of IE? 6... 7... 8... 9?

Sounds like you are on a very old computer...

Hrm? I'm still seeing white on a very light grey... The mispelled word is highlighted red and yellow... but the white/light grey is still an issue... (at least I think so)

Is that about what you are seeing?

Dell Dimension 8250.  :D
Film editing is a slow process, it blows like a middle aged porn actress.
IE 1 I guess.
I see black on white in the spell check.
Just like my faverite search keyword.
Now its grey on grey. :(

IE 1... LOL No.

Weird... No one is making changes to the spell check as far as I know...  hrmm...

If you could provide a screenshot of the cutoff text, that would be helpful.

Dude... 2003? Time to get a new computer.... and you are VIDEO editing on it? Jesus fuck. I'm on an inspiron B130 laptop right now that makes me want to claw my eyes out. I can't even imagine being on a computer that's several years OLDER.
