CN FWFrom: Zapoteth Zaius in white font hopefully so it doesn't show up.. Now that I've proven I passed, which wasn't hard, I hate to have to rain on your parade, but white text does NOT make anything invisible here. The text background for this theme is not white. It is actually color#e5edf8, which is a very pale blue. In order to make the text invisible, you have to do this:Congratulations. If you're reading this, you passed what I think the first test was supposed to be. To type text this color, simply input the value "e5edf8" instead of the word "white" in the bbCode tag.If you examine the source for this page, you'll find a reference to http://secondlife.com/forums/images/bg_w.gif which is the image behind every post. Open that image in Photoshop (or take a screenshot) and you'll see it's made of just the color e5edf8.

Well I have already blown it, and I rather like being the only person to have posted at length to this thread. I LIKE being different! I don't care that I didn't get it!
Tests are rather popular in England just now. The government tests five year olds, 7, 11, 14, 16, 17, 18.
I like the saying which many home educators subscribe to...no one ever got taller by being measured.
Do I prove or disprove the test? Cali

Hmm, its all the same to me, but I have my screen brightness quite high, oh well, we're giving them a chance then
I don't feel so evil anyway..

Really? I'd recommend recalibrating your monitor. Just so you know, e5edf8 in RGB terms is actually (229,237,24 as opposed to white which is (255,255,255). Mathmatically, that puts it at about 7% off white. 7% is a HUGE difference. If you're missing it, you've probably been missing a whole lot more and didn't even know it.
