yeah, I got that part, but I'm having difficulty making the background the same color as the text so you have to highlight it to see it.

Oh, I see...

Interesting. I wonder what one could do with that. Maybe post secrets not-so-stealthily...

Ah, the possibilities.

Well, its already made me paranoid that people are adding in hidden messages to their posts, even if they aren't. So now I waste a lot of time mousing over every word and waiting for a tooltip to appear.

The only thing is one of your acronyms exceeded a size limit...

I don't think anyone will actually use the acronym tags for acronyms. That seems more trouble than it's worth.

It occurred to me the morning after I posted my post about acronyms, that I had unleashed some kind of terrible horrifying beast upon the boards. Then I realized the first person to quote someone and notice the stuff on the left bar would end up doing the same thing.

By the way, does anyone know if block quotes are disabled?
