Am I the only one who sees black writing on a black background and cannot read it?
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

It's like Smell The Glove...how much blacker can it get...and the answer is...none more blacker.

Good job.  After an afternoon at Spanish Flowers, we should be in Craigform for the game.

I get the same thing.  One way around it is to just highlight the text.

Thanks everyone. I hope you all have a great day at Spanish Flowers and at the game. And if there are any Cubfans nearby, I hope they have to sit in front of the Raups. Go Astros!

IE7.

No, it's a booger to read, that's for sure.

I'm on IE7 and it's crystal clear to me.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

The black on black is crystal clear (cause given your profession and black heart that would make sense) or you're not seeing black writing on a black background?

I'm not seeing black on black.  My background is a light gray.

That's it, I'm having you audited this year.

The theme has been tested on three different browsers and two versions of IE (6 and 7).  If you have a slow connection though, you have to wait for the CSS to load the grey background because it's not a solid background by one line that is repeated after it understands all the sidebar elements and main post are loaded on the page.  So on slower connections, it will look black on black, but in reality, it's just loading slowly because of your connection and/or computer speed.

I am getting the black out as well and I don't think it is a slow connection as I get porn downloads at break-neck speed.

Nothing wrong with my connection speed.  It's just dark lettering on a dark background.

Same here.  Been like that for awhile, I just assumed it was still being tested.

Weird, because I see it fine on IE7 and on Firefox.  Although I have noticed occasions where the front page was updated and everyone else saw but all I saw was some Wordpress page or something.  Maybe try clearing your cache and history?

Same for me, but only on the work machine that has IE6. Looks fine when I use IE7 at home.
