| I'm a geek. My interests are Auschwitz, the Judge Rotenberg Center, school shootings, morgues and mortuaries, disasters, and autism. And probably a few more things. :) Hmm. Are you single? Actually, i am joking; i'm way too old to be serious. People your age are always interested in stuff like that... |

| Well, the problem with reading lies almost entirely within the fonts colour. The font face and font size are only small factors in your case. But red and blue do not read well over grey, which is why i suggested that you try using #aaaaaa or #cccccc and see what it looks like. I think that would be ... |

| I think that an avatar is a 60x60 pixel mental projection of one's inner self. I think that, for some people, it makes their personality easier to sum up, where as a picture of them would only show you just that: a picture of them. For example, if you seen a picture of me, you would think that i am ... |

| Have you ever thought of changing the font size to be about 10pt or 9pt, and changing the colour to a light grey, like #aaaaaa? I think that it would look much better. Also, if you changed your font face to a sans serif face, like font-family:sans,sans-serif;, it would make it look even better. I do... |

Ahhh, nice work around; i may give that a shot. It is just a pet peve of mine when people do not explicitly style all textual elements. If i do not have something explicitly set on one of my websites, then it is only because i forgot.
Thanx |

| Yes, well the problem is that i use a dark theme for my desktop ( http://LinuxIntro.com/1.png ); the background is black, and the text is white, so i tell firefox NOT to use system themes, and use the website's instead. I do not like to override the web author's intended colours, as it kind of takes... |

| To repeat, simply hit the 'reply' button, and whala; you cannot read what you are typing. Refreshing browser and cookies made no difference. I am using Firefox 3.x on Fedora Linux. |

| She is the most manipulative people I know, and is very good at it. I have even stronger manipulation skills than she does, I just choose to not use them because I don't want to be anything like her. That which she did indirectly caused mental abuse to her children, who she stilll sees as an invest... |

| In your text boxes and text areas the background is white; conversely, your text is white also. This causes the person typing to be unable to see what they are typing. I noticed that when clicking the mouse, during the onMouseDown event, the text changes to black, rendering it readable. If you edit ... |

| Yes it can. Ever heard of feral children? Some people lock them away in their own home and they never see daylight and the real world so their minds don't develope the skills so therefore it stays wired that way so it's like brain damage because they will never recover from it and be normal.
