New Post/Thread page has a gray background?

[celticpride678]

I just noticed today that when you post a new thread or reply, the page has a gray background now.

Was this changed on purpose?

Just to give my opinion, I don't like it that much.

As I recall, it was always grey but it is now considerably darker. I like it this way. Change to this place is s l o w.

I noticed it too. Personally I don't like it, but I'm not complaining though, it's trivial (IMO).

Now... where's the redesign? It has been incoming for at least 4 years now...

I noticed it on 2 different machines. I thought maybe it was some cached CSS issue, but doesn't seem so, so far. I don't care for it either.

CSS-wise, looks to be the .tborder selector that causes this color. It's declared in the page rather than from a CSS file.

It'd look better if the "Reply to Thread" div was the same color :-\

I also notice it, It does not bother me that much, But on the profile page it looks bad

I noticed it earlier today, too. Frankly, I think it looks awful.

I think so too. It clashes to much, it was fine the way it was before.

Ewwwwww... hopefully it's a mistake! But whichever.

I noticed it too. Not a fan, makes the site look older, but I don't mind so much. I would love a complete overhaul of the site though.

I noticed it too, but thought I was imagining things. It looks fine to me. The less white the better. Too bad we can’t change the whole layout to suit our individual tastes.

Oh, everyone else is seeing that? I thought there was something wrong-er in my head.

1000 posts.

Until you've had a Guido refund, you haven't had a refund.

I believe it has something to do with the contest, and is only temporary, but I could be wrong.

What contest?

Y'know, "The Contest":

I'm glad somebody asked about this because I had the feeling something was wrong but I just wasn't sure. Colors aren't my strong suit.

I don't think it was changed on purpose. I'll ask around.

What contest?

Ten Million Post Contest. I seem to remember this happening before, but maybe I'm just imagining things
