You can try changing the gamma settings on your display. Windows uses 1.8 while Macintosh uses 2.2 (I think, I might have the numbers wrong).

You guys are aware it's entirely possible some are happy with vB 5, right? Maybe the consensus right now is that it's not very good, but different people like different things.

[Quillz]

They might want to consider fixing something that doesn't work on what is going to be one of the most commons ways a vB 5 site is accessed....

It does feel slower than both vB 4 and 5, but I'm sure it will improve with time.

I changed mine recently, too, and now I just get a small white rectangle...

It does seem rather slow. Probably a server issue more than software issue, though.

Usually, message boards do not let you delete your account on your own because it can mess up existing threads and messages. Contact the admins, or else just log out and never log in again....

What reason would that be?...

I'm liking IE9 a lot.

I'm not finding it much different from RC3, but I guess that's a good thing.

[Quillz]

I haven't had any problems with it.

You get your web hosting from NameCheap? I'd only ever use them for domain names.

For several years, I've used Site5 for hosting and NameCheap for domain names, have had no issues with...

You can't explain all the differences between the two cultures in a few paragraphs. Why not take some courses on cultural differences between the two? I mean, there are differences in the language, food,...
