Perhaps a color other than light green would work better?

Arkady, if you're careful with your cursor and move over the nick to mark it, it gets easier to read. I agree, they are hard to read.

It's the glow of our brilliance.

Of course we're harder to see. Like in Dogma, where the human mind and body are incapable of withstanding the awesome power of God's voice, so too are non-sponsors incapable of withstanding the radiant beam of 100% pure awesomeness that is the sponsors' visage. True story.
I am awesome.

Hey Paul, I think you ought to embolden the mods, just to be consistent - or at least their names, anyway.
...most of our actions are the result of the past, or according to a future ideal. That's not action, that is just conformity.
