It is so that your name stands out to you. On all our boards your name will still be in green. Janet

Hi Wendy, It,s not a silly question, I asked the same thing a couple of months ago :o) thought it was because i lived abroad and had a different server. lol. Another tip if you so contact anyone on these boards, and then look at their name going through the home page, it will come up with contacted against their name in red, this is also only visable to you as you are the person who contacted them. Every little bit of information helps :0) Regards Sheila
