When the site is slow to load the style sheets often don't take effect right away. Is your connection slow? Does it clear itself up if you wait a bit?
I've seen this before as well on a slow connection, but it usually corrects itself with just a little patience.
My connection is fairly fast, usually only takes <10 seconds to load pages.
However, I left my browser open while I ate dinner, came back, and it still hasn't changed.
Okay, I've got 8 hours left before I time out my first game, so I'm going to have to act fast.
Would this be considered a legitimate reason to turn on vacation, at least until my browser starts cooperating? The only other thing I can think of is to try opening another browser, but if that fails, I have no idea of what to do.
Absolutely -- turn on your vacation, if you're able, and submit a support request (if you're able):

Thank you! I just needed to make sure it's a legitimate reason for vacation and won't get me banned.

did you feed your browser anything?
Something just happened to Chess.com...every link just gets displayed in a vertical list on a blank white background. Also I can't see the board in any of my games. Could someone help please? Thanks!
