Could you, please, change the field colour to a lighter Grey or so? ▲ Collapse

Hello Ralf Aug 12, 2005

I am using IE 6.0.

Can it really be abot my settings? If so, I would very much appreciate some advice.

I see the background of this field in a very dark grey tone, nearly black, as the text is.

The disclaimer at the bottom Aug 12, 2005

I see the same problem. Black text on charcoal black background. The disclaimer box on the bottom. Highly illegible.

I do see everything allright Aug 12, 2005

and on light yellow background, highly legible.
It seems that these are your settings.
Check the settings in IE - Tools - Internet options - Browsing. Maybe there is something wrong.

Regards
Jerzy

All OK in Opera Aug 12, 2005

light yellow background. And also in IE 6.

I get dark green background while the page is loading, when it is fully loaded, the background colour changes to light yellow.

Site code changed Aug 12, 2005

Hi all,
Justin at ProZ.com just told me that he'd identified the problem and fixed it - is the display clearer now?

Best regards,
