I also have IE8 and when I set the skin to Stone White under General Settings, it works fine for me. I have tried it in Firefox 3.6.10 and it works fine as well.

When you log in, make sure to check the box next to the log in button. By checking this, your browser will remember your login info.

I know it sounds dumb, but I don’t know what’s wrong. I just tried logging in on another computer with IE7 and as expected it switched from the default colors to Stone White. Later today I can try logging in on another computer with IE8 and see if it works there…

I'll try that when I get home tonight. I'm not sure how it was set before when it used to work, but maybe that box is needed to be checked now? For IE7 it worked without me checking the box.

Happening to me on my computer as well. I've changed my forum actions settings to stone white and it won't give me white. Just black. I'm using most recent version of IE8.

It won't stay white on IE8 for me either--changes to default if I move to a different page in the forum; however stays on Opera or Fire Fox -- go figure

What operating system and version of IE8 are you all using?

I'm running Windows 7 and IE8 version 8.0.7600.16385 and it works fine with this configuration. If you can get me this info, I will try to look into it further. Maybe it has something to do with the specific version

I'm on XP at office with IE8 build 8.0.6001.18702

I'm on Windows 7 at home Not sure which build but no updates to run as of 2 days ago, so i'm figuring the most recent.

same issue on each computer, yes, checking the box you showed in previous post.

That's correct. I've done all that and it still won't stay white. Just reverts back to 'black' when I make a selection. I'm using explorer. Never had this issue until the other day.

...I love the stone white screen because it so conveniently blends in with my work MS Outlook!

2 more things:

1. correction on previous post--I may not have tried it on the Windows 7 machine at home last night--may have been via a remote connection to my work xp machine.

2. right now, I'm logged in via IE8 (same build as the IE8 on the xp machine) on a windows server 2003 machine and it worked. White color automatically shows up. but if i log out here and log in on the xp machine--no go--it just goes back to the default.
