am a nightmare walking, psychopath talking
King of my jungle just a gangster stalking
Living life like a firecracker quick is my fuse
Then dead as a deathpack the colors I choose
Red or Blue, Cuz or Blood, it just don’t matter
Suckers dive for your life when my shotgun scatters
We gangs of L.A. will never die – just multiply

It doesn’t seem like the colors at any of the other blogs I go to have been changed.

Uh, hi.
The goal is to make hyperlinks show up better in blockquotes. This…isn’t quite the answer, but it’s a start.

I’m pretty sure the orange hyperlink on the old gray background showed up pretty well…
SBN FAIL!
…or Grant is lying to us again….
come to think of it, if that was the goal – why would the comment box change color too??

No, it was pretty miserable for heavily linked posts. I’ve had complaints about it since the new site was up.

Well, if we’re going to have orange hyperlinks, then we should have black boxes. Seems pretty simple to this Giants fan.

As the admin of the site, do you have the ability to change the CSS for this stuff? Or did you have to ask SBN to change it up for you?

Probably cause WalrusMan is a mod.
I know you nerds know NOTHING about the real game of baseball, or any other athletic endeavor requiring teamwork under physical stress.

Yeah, figured as much, but I didn’t see it on the front page, and I thought the two went hand in hand.

There’s an option of whether to make a post on the front page or not when creating one.

Ha. This is the first thing I thought of too, when I saw the title. I had a friend in college (this was back when the movie came out) who for weeks would walk around rapping the tune — partly in tribute, partly because I think he thought it was a little silly.

I’d say the boxes are a salmony color and the links are a burnt orange.
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.
Yeah – it’s not pretty. Do not want.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
And I tweet (more often than I blarg).
NO LONGER SALMONY!

is it more red now rather than salmony or have I have just been staring at the computer too long?

It changed again. I suppose it’s better than pink.

IS THIS BETTER, YOU CHANGE-AFEARED WEENIES
The old color scheme was definitely preferable to this, even if people complained about whatever it was they couldn’t see. This is terrible!
Really, I’m just having fun with it at this point. The site colors could be pretty anything except for blue and white, purple and white, and whatever the diamondback colors are in any given year, and I’d be more than happy. Even poop brown is fine by me.
