For the FSD users that are using Internet Explorer to access the interent. It has problems with the xenstyles on FreeStepDodge.com but only with the xenblack style from what I have seen.
When you change your style to xenblack everything is fine until you are ready to post something on FreeStepDodge. You are unable to read what you are typing as you are typing it and you have to change the font color to see what you are typing. This problem is only with Internet Explorer and the xenblack style, I believe, I know Google Chrome doesn't have this issue.
So, if you use Internet Explorer as an internet browser and you visit FSD and you have changed your style to xenblack. When you start a; "conversation" (private message), posting in a thread, and or making a thread:
1. You click in the text box
2. Then go up where the letter "A" is next to the smiley face and change your font color
3. Then you can start to type your message and view it while you type and after you are done.
Do Not change your font to a white font style when making a thread or posting because the users who use xenwhite will see a blank page/post if you do that.
If you don't want to change your font color you can type your message/posts in the default text color and highlight it once you are done to see it and make changes where they are needed. That is a headache to do if you make frequent mistakes when you type.
You can also type your message in the notepad feature you have on your computer then copy and paste that into the text box. Again another hassle but if you are a die hard Internet Explorer user then this what you have to do if you don't want to change your font color.
If are using another browser and you have these problems/issues please post that browser here, so that a sloution can be found to fix them. That way you can keep using your current internet browser for FSD and not change it if you don't want to.
