With me it works perfectly well...
Gray Background

ya, I think it's because of the new background they've just made that is now this darker color.. Can someone assist?

Maybe that way too dark gray top background is supposed to be mixed with the bottom half that is white. Then it would be a readable light gray. It does indeed need to be fixed.

Why, there is nothing at the background, so there is nothing to be read? The text is in a white background...

I could barely see text in the nearly black background, but it was there.

You can always have it back here:http://www.chess.com/home/themes.html
I like btw the new interface of the themes, it´s a lot more practical/useful or how you should say it (English is still bad!)...
In the tactics trainer when you view analysis and source you can't see it because of this new background you've instituted... Please change it. It's pissing me off. Thanks
