So yesterday, I noticed that when I load RCF in Firefox, the top menu bar that contains Forums, UserCP etc is not loading the red background to it. I see the red lines in between buttons, but obviously can't see the actual words. I've included a JPG to show what I'm experiencing.

I have tried loading RCF in Google Chrome, IE, and Firefox. Only Firefox is producing this effect. For background, it had worked fine earlier in the night last night. I have not updated any settings, nor have I installed any new plugins or any programs.

Any ideas what might be causing this? Anyone else experiencing anything similar? I should note that absolutely everything else shows up just fine, all except for that one section.

I'm not experiencing the same effects, and I use Firefox 99% of the time. I'd recommend clearing your cache and deleting any stored data from Firefox. (Tools > Clear Private Data > Check Everything > Clear Private Data Now). The problem might be caused by an incorrect/inaccurate cache of RCF's CSS files. Even a single bit error could cause such a problem; however, this is unlikely.

Next, run task manager by right-clicking the taskbar and click "Task Manager." Click the "Processes" tab and look for an instance of "firefox.exe." If one exists, right-click and click End Process Tree (to kill it and all child threads).

Finally, restart Firefox and see if the problem persists. If not, then good. If so, repost.
 
Glen's new banner is too large for some monitor resolutions. Firefox deals with the problem by pushing everything down. I've made him aware of the problem and a fix should be made shortly.

I had already done that once, tried it again. It was fine while being logged out. As soon as I logged into my account, the same issue reappeared, so I'm completely stumped as to the cause.

I'm not computer illiterate, just maybe not as technical as some. It's just definitely an issue I can't seem to troubleshoot myself. But thanks for the advice gourimoko, it just unfortunately didn't solve the problem.

Thanks Ben. I did test my resolutions, and it seems that seems to have fixed the problem. But since I hate having my screen that tiny, I'll just use Chrome until the problem is fixed.
 
Mine does the same thing, But when I log out it's fine..
 
The fix has been found. Just waiting for Infante to implement it and to make sure it doesn't screw with MAC browsers.
 
I fixed it for Mac browsers. Please let us know if any problems still occur.
 
Thanks guys works and looks awesome.
