The devnull forum has a broken theme, it named all the links to be white! A theme usage bug until now just hid that problem. I've set the devnull forum theme back to "default".

All Things Unix is pretty hosed as well with the default theme. (screenshot is firefox, but happens in IE also)

Ok I see you have fixed the dev/null forum but the Secret Cooler forum is still hosed with messed up colors.

Oh that turned out not to be theme related.
Someone had used BODY tags with LINK colors in the FORUM HEADER definition

unsure if this is related or not.. but I'm using the Dark Site-Wide/Theme Override and the links have *always* been yellow as you can see on the right side. why the navigation sidebar isn't anymore is beyond me.

unfortunately the various theme link colors do not always match the sidebar background color, so it is now a safer choice that does. Sidebar (and top bar) background color is not a customizeable field of a theme.

Yummy!
Here is another example of color being off. This is the 'dark' site override theme:

Incidentally, this is the exact same symptom detailed in this thread: »dark site skin - colors on reply page are off

That has been fixed, so whatever you did to fix that is probably a similar fix for this.

Was I seeing things, or did the tab colors temporarily change to the "Topic Functions" color?

Looks good here now, in both IE and Firefox.

I have everything set to blank for colors/themes. I see a new "site-wide" setting and it's blank also. The front page has very bright blue for the news article headings. Is that "normal" ?? I believe my browser's color settings are default, but I'll check 'em now. Hmm, can't tell if they've been changed...
