which lines do you mean, Gerry? Do you mean the posts on the main pages of each forum? If you are talking about dark bolded headings that just indicated a post you havent read yet because its new. does that help?

Hmm well I don't get a variety of different colours for some reason, mine are all green. But the ones I haven't read yet are dark and bolded and a dark green I believe. The lighter ones are those that I have already read which are either brand new posts or new replys to older posts. Anything else?

Don't worry, everyone's screen is like that! The colors are just there to make the boards prettier and look more organized! You're not missing out on anything!

I didn't get a variety of colors UNTIL I changed my color setup. You change it on your computer. Get out of the internet entirely and go into "My Computer." What kind of operating system do you have? Mine is Windows 98. This is what I do:

1. My Computer
2. Control Panel
3. Display
4. Display Properties
5. Settings
6. Colors (set at "True Color 32 Bit") and screen area between "less" and "more" but closer to "less." (800 by 600 pixels.)

When I had the setting up too high, I didn't see ANY colors in here, and when I changed it, wow everything changed for me -- I got COLOR! AND, not only were my emoticons much clearer, but my picture -- and all the photographs of everyone -- were clearer too. I could SEE! It was a MIRACLE! I COULD SEE!

Ohboyohboyohboy. Wait 'till Missy Mags sees this. She's my computer teacher. I'm the computer idiot. I tried to read "Computer For Idiots," but I was too stupid to understand it.

Hey, MAGS! Check this out! I done good!

Gerry, you're not dumb at all! If you means the lines on the page where you're reading all the messages in a thread I think that's just to make it more attractive. I really don't think the colors serve any other purpose.

And you should never worry about us thinking you're stupid, Gerry... you know the kind of things we share on this board.

Whoops! I thought I had read this whole thread and I had only read the first page. Your question was already answered!!
