When NFF changed its provider to SMF, I didn't like the default version of white letters on a black background and so did other members and I read how to change it and am very happy with the format that has alternate white and light blue bars. When my wife, Claudia, joined Nelsonfoto yesterday, the SMF default format of white on black came up in which she doesn’t like either, but I forgot how I changed the color of the format. So, please remind me how the white on black format can be changed to white and blue?

Another question: Is there anyone out there who has a spouse or partner who also belongs to Nelsonfoto forum and shares the same computer?  When Claudia and I sign into NFF, it seems only one cookie is allowed per computer which doesn’t support two people's accounts on a common laptop (IBM Thinkpad T30 using XP.) Or if it can, I don't know how to set it up.

I would appreciate help on both issues

TIA, 

Les

For the display, once logged on click the "Profile" item on the menu, then under Modify Profile click the Look & Layout Preferences.  Select the desired view and click Use this...

For the cookie thing, if you're logging on your laptop with different users it shouldn't be a problem since each user would have their own cookie jar.  But if you're using a common account you might have to toss your cookies between users (in the computer sense, that is).  In IE7 this is click Tools/Internet options then in the Browsing history part click Delete and on the next window click Delete cookies.  Other Browsers should be similar.  Might be other ways around this problem though.

Our Rose and Mike, maybe, (Madrigal and Fletch). 
Nah, maybe not.  They probably have his and hers computers.  Blue and pink, I'm sure.

Thanks Todd!

Both your suggestions worked out neatly. We can select both accounts on the same laptop by using the log in screen, rather than have a cookie automatically select one and only one account per laptop.

Martolod and Dean,

Thanks for your comments.
