Yeah, looks that way for me too (subsilver skin) as well as your post in the previous page which had NOT been underlined for me up till now here.

(PS The above post link IS also underlined!

Charlotte, can you verify minimal is working correctly now with the change. (I added the CSS to minimal) I can verify, but I'd like someone else to confirm.

It works, although the links don't change colors. Odd because at work, with the accessibility features turned on, I see links in color. At home, with straight minimal, they're not colored, so when the link is visited, the underline goes away and you can no longer determine that it's a link except by mousing over.

It works in Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox 3.6, both on Windows 7, and it doesn't make a difference whether I have followed the links or not.
Same in Opera 10.50.

Doc,

Mike hasn't gotten round to modifying Aero Black yet, he only did subsilver2 and Minimal.
As I said, if it's a lot of trouble, skip it. My biggest issue was the color thing. Underlined or not, I simply felt that the color of the links should be a more contrasting shade so that they stand out as links and you don't have to mouse-over them to see that. This shade of blue always seemed to stand out against whatever skin was being used and that was the gist of my question. Can that be duplicated with this software ??

BTW - Thanks Mike for all you do around here. It is much appreciated. :smile:
