Default Techie Guidance Please
My techno-fu is weak.

Two things I cannot figure out:
1. I have a problem reading black font on a blue background. Is there a way I can change it?
2. Are avatars enabled? If so, I can't seem to make it work.

Nits - not a big deal in the overall scheme of things.

Again, Thanks very much for setting us up!
Jack

Yes, some of it. I changed the message body background. Maybe I can add another color scheme at some point and people can choose what they like.

No worries. It's just my aging eyes. You should see some of the strange pants/shirt/tie color combos I wear to work. It gives the girls something to laugh about
