You can now edit the colors and fonts of the RRBBS++ Blog's pop-up window (the one that contains the whole message and replies).

Let me know if you find any buggiboos...

I also added a link to "Edit Blog" on your blog page when you are logged in to RRBBS.

I tried that and something bad happened. Garnet and Gold are great colors and two of my favs but I didn't request them. I also got that green again.

A suggestion would be to give pop-up boxes with the options for each choice. Also you might want to note which options need to contrast so you don't select say a blue font against a blue background.

Also a restore defaults option would be handy.

I left my requested changes in place on my blog edit page so you can see what I selected and what I got. I think it may be a bug in the new edit function. Although it may be editor error.

You had a background color (blue) that is the same as the "link" color. So, I changed the link color to black.

It seems to be working fine now... let me know (I made the changes for you).

A few comments I have is that the Lucinda font makes it difficult for me to read the messages. The blue colored font on the gray is also a bit difficult to make out.

/maybe I need to see the eye doc again...

I can't get to the front page tonight as it appears to be blank so's I can't log in. Thanks for the info. The gray and blue contrast nicely on my computer screen but I am learning lessons that gives Rob headaches like everyone doesn't see the same on every computer. Thanks for the feed back. I'll make some changes.

I logged in on a back page. My pop up windows are still red green and yellow.

Now, you got me... what version browser are you using and what type? Internet Explorer? Look at the top of the browser for "Help" (to the right of "File").

Click that, and click down for "About" the browser, and this should give you the version number.

Everything seems fine on this end in terms of color, so I can't figure out why you are getting strange colors.

I *THINK* I may have fixed the problem. Let me know.

"e-For you "hackers:" I forgot to remove the "hard returns" at the end of the elements of the config file.

I didn't think this really mattered, but in Booga's browser, it apparently does.

The config file is stored as:

config1
config2
config3
etc
etc

...with hard returns on the ends of each element... when I looked at the source of Booga's popup window, colors would appear like:

"blue
"

Not good. -quote&

Thanks for alerting me to this Booga... hopefully, this was the problem.
