"Do you think the bar on the left would look better in a different colour?"

Y'know, the blue navbar on the left with about four score and ten links on it.

I only ask because it just appeared to change colour, first to light blue (which was virtually illegible), then to grey (which was slightly better). I'm not sure if that was a glitch in SR, or an 'interesting feature' of Mozilla 1.2 that I didn't know about.

Hard to say really. Dark blue on light blue might work, or maybe red on grey.

Anyone a graphics specialist out there?

Yeah, I hate the dodgy blue column. This would be much better:

hows about urine yellow?

It already looks like that on my computer.

Are you saying you wizzed on your PC?

Why don't SR 'invert' the image and the document background colour. That way we could choose whatever background colour we wanted using Javascript. Hmmm, I might suggest that in the Site Bugs thingy.

to be honest, I don't like your suggestion monkey_man.. it seems a bit dull.

Fair enough, but this site is dull enough (layout-wise) as it is - we need something to spice it up a bit!

that something will have to be pretty major..

Pink on Orange :-P
I think Black on Light Blue might look good. Or White on Red.
