Many of you are aware that the board has a 10-character minimum limit for posts. Most of you compensate by coloring some filler text white. (i.e. adding some white "......."s to the end of a short post)

However, it is a small peeve of mine that I can still often see the white dots on the gray when my laptop screen is tilted a certain way.

To fix this, simply use the hex color #fafafa to match the board color instead of white.

For instance, your post formatting would look like this:

Nice. http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/1672/coloro.png........http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/7445/endcolor.png

And would render:

Nice. ........


Ok I'm done.
