   Yes, I was one who promoted the idea. I used too see it , but it does not show now.

That's weird.  All this time, I was assuming it was working.
Are you saying that all the posts have exactly the same background?
Could you post a screen shot so I can try to figure this out?

Hi,

  Right ,the posts all look like a white background to me.  If it matters the "stickied" topics do show in green background.  How do I post a screen shot?

Seth,

Are you seeing this on the same monitor and same computer? 

I found that the appearance changes from monitor to monitor and computer to computer.  Right now, I'm working with two monitors on one computer.  When I drag the browser from one to the other, the appearance changes somewhat.  The bands are very light on my left monitor and darker on the right monitor.

Regards,

Dan.

The stickies have another, more noticeable, color, which is why they are probably showing up better for you.

Just to make sure I know what you mean, are you talking about the background of the posts, or the topic listings?  Either way, it's the same issue (except by column instead of row), but I want to be clear (no pun intended).

They do alternate in Safari/Mac. It is subtle.

Matthew, I do get the alternating background block colors but the green is so subtle that it easily is lost as a background difference. In printer terms, maybe a 10% instead of the normal 0

For those that do not see the alternating green and white it may be a monitor calibration problem (Monitor being set to bright)

You can get a decent idea about your monitor settings here

Hi,

      OK the green background shading on every other post and column is still there. I did some monitor adjusting and it magically reappeared.  My monitor must have done an auto adjust when I wasn't looking.

So the forum looks OK now?
