I assume "they" finally took your advice and blocked the folks from questionable countries/IPs. Maybe that was part of the CF move, some feature that CF has built into (or at an additional cost) for their hosting.

Since he changed to KFC he's been much more astute.

On the main OT thread list, I see two header stripes that are what look to me like a dark navy blue, but then when I click a thread, I see a much brighter blue.

Are the 2 dark navy blue stripes what you guys are calling black?

2 dark navy stripes near the top


bright blue stripe near the top.

Well maybe it's a very dark blue, hard to say.

Ok, so you're talking about the same thing, the one bar that says "Forum" and the other that says "thread".

And I don't remember the bar at the top of the thread being a gradient blue, rather than just a solid blue.

We're fancier than we used to be! LOL

I used to have multiple monitors and spent a lot of time adjusting them to get them as close as possible. I still have 2 at work, but they are the same make/model, so they generally look identical.

I have considered getting one of those sensors that will "look" at your monitor and then adjust the monitor for correct color, but I no longer do enough stuff that would warrant that sort of thing to do it any more.
