Forum:Transparency issues on Silent Hill Wiki

Hi, on Silent Hill Wiki, there are some weird transparency issues on categories and "read more" sections. Some of the backgrounds are black, whereas others are grey. Does anyone know why some of the backgrounds happen to be black? I thought it was going to go away eventually, but it's been like this for 2 weeks and I have no idea why. It all just started happening about 2 weeks ago.

If you want to see what it looks like, here's an example:

If anyone can help, big thanks. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  02:48, March 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Hi. I'm sorry but I don't quite understand what seems to be the problem. From your message I get that grey is the normal, and indeed everything is grey.
 * The only thing that is not grey are the creatures' backgroungs but this is because this is how the image files are. Take this for example. If I have misunderstood your issue please let me know :) . -- Noemo n  * talk * 03:11, March 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ahh, sometimes it changes from time to time. Here's a good example: Yes, grey is the normal and I don't know why some of them are black. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  06:12, March 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Ah, now I see what you mean. Still peculliar, as it probably has to do with the way the thumbnails are generated (which most probably happens server side), yet this is how I see them on both Firefox and Chrome. Have you tried clearing your cache? -- Noemo n  * talk * 06:39, March 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I tried clearing it, but still no dice. It's almost as if the thumbnails like to flip-flop back and forth between grey and black. I'd prefer them to remain grey. It's just weird because I don't see this happening on any other wikis... so I'm hoping Wikia can give me an answer. It's been like this for two weeks so I figured now's the time to bring it up. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  07:43, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
