Update: Dunno what has changed, if anything(?), but now it is only the frontpage that has this problem in Netscape. Matter of factly, the "problem" people has with the blue links and such seems to be due to the fact that the frontpage is missing some or all (depening on theme?) CSS. And it is only on the frontpage that I know of. (On a side note, I still think that it is funny that the META keywords for this site contains "xp whoring" among the others). Back to the regular show:

Heh, you are right. When viewing in netscape, this part is missing from the HTML code: 

<style rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
      body {
        color:            #000000;
        background-color: #FFFFFF;
      }
      a:link    { color: #000066  }
      a:visited { color: #333399 }
</style>

I have no idea why that is, but as a temporary solution, maybe you could set such things as custom CSS in your user settings?

Not that it shouldn't be fixed, of course, IMO. :)

You have moved into a dark place.
It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
