A bug report, I guess:
In the "QC-old" theme, when looking in "show unread posts since last visit" this stickied thread has a different background color, a soft beige which clashes very harshly with the white font.
While looking on the normal sub-forum pages, the stickied threads have the same coloring as other threads.
how thread looks in unread posts:
how it looks in normal subforums:
edit: actually, the hilighting might just be what it looks like when it's unread... the "how it looks in normal subforums" pic is of it having been read, and "in unread posts" is it not yet read.
