		<title>Sublime Text, Not So Sublime Colors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Sublime Text is a new text editor for coding. If you use it correctly, you can even fix the foreground and background colors on your website!


The Link
http://www.sublimetext.com/
The Problem
Undefined background and foreground colors across the site. 
The Fix
Pop open your new fancy text editor and open the sublime.css file and add color: #000; background-color: #fff; to [...]]]></description>

		<title>TinEye.com has a Tin Eye</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Again, sites that deal with design, style or color should be held to a higher standard.


The Link
http://tineye.com/.
The Problem
Undefined background color. 
The Fix
The good old background-color: #fff addition to the body selector in the base.css file. Considering that there are other colors defined, leaving out the background color is a bad idea.

		<title>Artists Should Learn CSS, Too</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
If you are a CPA and your site&#8217;s colors are undefined, I&#8217;m not likely to care. However, if you are an artist or designer or web professional, then you should pay more attention to your site&#8217;s design and CSS. I love Neill Cameron&#8217;s A-Z of Awesomeness, but the site needs some defined colors.

		<title>Salt Lake Tribune Needs Some Colors</title>

I guess all the western sun fried the designer/developer brains at the Salt Lake Tribune.


The Link
http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_13185543 and all the other pages.
The Problem
Undefined background color, though also missing a foreground color in the comments section. 
The Fix
Adding background-color: #fff; color: #000; to the body selector in this file: http://extras.mnginteractive.com/live/css/MNGiDefaultStyles.css. Also, to fix the comment, a color: [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spawn.com Should Spawn Some Color</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I didn&#8217;t realize that Spawn was still around. It&#8217;s so 1990s.


The Link
http://www.spawn.com/news/ and most of the secondary pages. The home page is actually fine.
The Problem
Undefined background color, of course. 
The Fix
It is getting old, but adding background: #fff to  the /news/Styles/NewsStyle.css file will fix it.

As mentioned in the comments, Colorsuckr has fixed the background color problem. And is a great tool for web designers!


Again, sites that deal with design, style or color should be held to a higher standard.

Mozilla was doing so well, until now&#8230;


The Link
http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&#038;rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official, which happens to be the default Firefox home page, though it seems that Google is responsible for it.
The Problem
Undefined background color. 
The Fix
The good old background: #fff addition. And, by the way, isn&#8217;t is about time that Google/Mozilla start using a non-tables layout on that page?

		<title>Here&#8217;s Something to Ask Wolfram Alpha</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Why doesn&#8217;t wolfram.com have a defined background color? Once Wolfram Alpha comes online, perhaps I&#8217;ll ask it that question. In the meantime&#8230;


The Link
http://www.wolfram.com/products/mathematica/ and most of their other pages.
The Problem
Undefined background color. 
The Fix
The background: transparent on the body selector overrides the background color. It should instead be background: #fff

		<title>Web Designer Help Needs Help</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Sometimes, the posts just write themselves. There is one thing worse than designers who don&#8217;t define their colors: sites that purpose to help you be a web designer, like today&#8217;s offender, Web Designer Help.

http://www.webdesignerhelp.co.uk/ and all their other pages.
The Problem
Undefined text colors. 
The Fix
