Am I the only one seeing this? Has Safari 3 gone bonkers?

It must be MacNN forum has changed their style sheet, I don't think Safari would do this.

OK.

Earlier today I didn't have this problem. Very light stripes only.

Then I ran Software Update, only installing the latest security patch (which covers webkit).

Now I have the stripe problem.

Safari 2.0.4, OS X 10.4.9

I haven't installed anything and I see the striping. It seems like there was some other color image that used to go with it or something…

It is a pretty sharp delineation, isn't it?

After the forum re-design I modified y display color settings to increase the contrast so I could see the grey colors a little bit better, but now I definitely do *not* have that problem. I have looked in the FEEDBACK thread and seen no comment about this, but does anyone know when they are going to fix the forums so everything is working right again?

Guys, this is obviously a server-side change/problem, so posting your OS and browser is not necessary.

Yep, it's there. I commented in the "New Theme" thread in the Feedback forum.

It was here yesterday, but today it is gone. I quite liked it. Made reading the topics far easier on the eyes.

It seems fine to me.

Now that is said, it will probably screw up on me soon.

No, it’s been back to normal at least all of today, so it is fine.

Feedback, son, feedback.

(Edit: Doesn't it look like the mutant offspring of the old theme and the new theme?

All better now—except for the part where it says “Today, 02:24 PM” below our posts, rather than above them...

This new admin sure is making the MacNN Experience extra fun, every day!

Well at least it shows that someone is working on fixing the issues, even if it is disruptive/weird.

I think we need to start a thread to get people's thoughts on Railroaders continued membership here.

And the thread is now complete.

Dakarx? Wasn't he the most advanced Dakar, a hybrid of the Dakar-800 and the Dakar-1000?

Sorry, it was a typo. I meant to type "Dakarz". Again, I am sincerely sorry and ask for your forgiveness.

If this Dakarx that you speak of is so advanced, can I have sex with it?
