Not that I can tell, it is still that god aweful powdery blue that remains in your retnias for three hours after logging off.

To be honest it is the only thing I hate about this site, but it is better than some of those others that have the black background with bright white text Wink

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing-it looks slightly lighter. I like it.

I was noticing the same thing, I thought it might be that I changed my monitor settings recently, but I guess not...

AMD Athlon 64 3700+&&GeForce FX5200 256Mb&&1GB DDR400 DC&&Seagate 500Gb SATA-300 HDD&&Windows XP Professional X64 Edition&&&&That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they kicked the pants off of my P4 3.4!

Is it me, or does this new background take a split second longer to load than the blue ???

I liked the solid color. Tongue
