    I just learned how to zoom in and zoom out with the View feature - how do you know how many pixels you have?

    admin said:
    I removed all red components from all colors. So it's all shades of blue and gray.


    Can you tell me admin, are the colours the same today as they were last night when i posted? Because i just popped over there, and the colours werent as harsh on me, so maybe you changed it? Or maybe im getting used to it?

    They are the same as last night. I changed them two days ago.

    Well this is what i think. Last night the colours were definitely unmanagable for me, and today they are much milder and no problem. So i just asked hubby how do i clean temporary internet files, and he says, oh you don't have to, i just did that this morning LOL. So that explains why it looks better to me today :) It's much better admin, and very do-able for me. I will try logging in there tonight and play around a bit, thanks :)
