How do I get to the begining of a thread?

I just noticed that. The only way I can figure is clicking back 40 posts at a time. If the button is there, I can't find it.

"...the cold gray surroundings will look OK, especially for a Seattle-based outfit."

I think we are getting a look at the 'Seattle Overcast' pallet.

The grey makes the link colors jump out at you though.

RTev, and All,

First of all, thanks to everyone who submitted their preferences (publicly and privately) regarding a color choice.

As you have noticed, we have started to implement the grey bars in place of the olive/khaki/baby-poop brown (whichever term you prefer). The grey was the clear winner based on the input that we received. Personally, I think grey is a little "cold", but I'm "warming" up to it. :) That's the thing about colors - it's mostly a personal preference.

All of the brown will get replaced by the grey over the next couple days - with the exception of the brown highlights for a clicked text link. For text links, we will use blue for "unclicked" links and the gold highlight color for clicked links.

At that point, we'll stop worrying about colors and move on to bigger and better improvements.

Thanks again for your input.

Bryan
